Thanks! I had it earlier like that (no parameter to c'tor), also on
Windows. But at least on Windows it did not seem to work.
I'll play with it once more tomorrow.
One more question: How are Linux frontends typically installing modules
in /usr/share/sword? Doesn't that require root permissions? Unless the
directory is set to 777 or something similar.
If you want to reset the Ezra Project database, you should delete the
file ~/.config/ezra-project/ezra.sqlite and also the Settings file
(remembers the last opened translations) ~/.config/ezra-project/Settings.
Best regards,
Tobias
