[sword-devel] IBT repository - module contents structure

Peter,

Just because you do not like the translation (and thus do not want to host it on CrossWire server(s)) does not mean that other people also do not like. There are people who want to use it with one of the CrossWire front ends. That is why I try to make a workable index for the bible and dictionary modules.

I do however, think this thread is worthwhile as others might benefit from the discussion.

Johan

PS - I do use PocketSword and Xiphos.

Before you all waste too much effort to help Johan, it would make sense to note  that his module is not in CrossWire because it was removed. His problem has nothing to do with the general malaise we are fighting at the moment and his use of this thread is simply opportunistic.

 

As such it makes currently little or no sense to complain about absent modules, indeces or else until the server is again how it should be - working properly. 

 

Peter

Johan, 

 

And I guess the same would be true if one used the command line utility mkfastmod.

 

Unless perhaps that uses a different library than Xiphos. 

 

It may still be worth trying.

Thank you to all.
I created my own modules and want to add indexing for PocketSword, the index created in Xiphos does not work in PocketSword.

FYI: I had added this feature, to create a default CLucene index, to Eloquent to make the index accessible to PocketSword via Module Maintainer mode.
But I do not know to which extend the index works or not works.
