[sword-devel] Where does Bishop store SWORD files on Android?

Ok!

Below is a full dump of adb logcat | grep libsword.

Seems like this is the key section, though:

01-02 10:35:25.259  5450  5538 D libsword.so: libsword: init() sword 
config not found, attempting to create parent of: 
/sdcard/sword/mods.d/globals.conf
01-02 10:35:25.260  5450  5538 D libsword.so: libsword: init() saving 
basic: /sdcard/sword/mods.d/globals.conf
01-02 10:35:25.260  5450  5538 D libsword.so: libsword: init() sword 
config STILL not found, attempting to create parent of: 
/data/user/0/org.crosswire.bishop/files/mods.d/globals.conf
01-02 10:35:25.262  5450  5538 D libsword.so: libsword: init() saving 
basic: /data/user/0/org.crosswire.bishop/files/mods.d/globals.conf

What is mods.d/globals.conf used for? It seems like this file is missing 
in my existing SWORD file structure.

Best regards,
Tobias
