[sword-devel] Lucene search index and Coptic ?

Yes - of course!

Encoding=UTF-8

It's not primarily a font issue, even though that might be a further
annoyance in Xiphos.

Having a font without coverage for the Coptic block in question cannot by
any stretch of logic account for a search that finds 622,900% of the only 2
true matches.

A font can only operate when the results are displayed, not during the
search "under the hood".

As regards entering the search term in Xiphos, the font in the GUI clearly
doesn't support the Coptic block.
If however, you copy the word back from the search key field and paste it
into BabelPad, it's quite certain that the word was unchanged.

The Coptic Bible text displays fine by Xiphos and PocketSword when viewed
normally.
This thread only relates to the search feature of these front-ends 
(and any others based on SWORD that use the same Lucene).

btw. Would it be true to assume that ticking "fuzzy search" in PocketSword
in effect says "goodbye" to Lucene?

Best regards,

David

PS. My updated .conf file is in the attached Zip (if this works herewith).
Already submitted to the modules team with a request to update the module to
version 1.1.1
Included here FIO. It makes no difference to the matter being pursued.
Mostly correcting elementary mistakes that were there from the first
release.
