[sword-devel] problem in libsword in indexing Genesis?

Sun Oct 13 13:59:53 EDT 2024

Hello hello,

interesting... I can reproduce in BibleTime, which is already good :)

I suppose we need to look further up than sword, as diatheke seems to be ok

❯ diatheke -b HunRUF -l hu -k '1Móz 1.1-1'
> Mózes I 1:1: Kezdetben teremtette Isten az eget és a földet.
> (HunRUF)

❯ diatheke -b HunRUF -l hu -k '1 Mózes 1.1-10'
> Mózes I 1:1: Kezdetben teremtette Isten az eget és a földet.

/irony on
The Hungarian modules and the locale file (which I think I did (or not) a
few decades ago) are simply perfect :) that cannot be the issue.
/irony off

Let me check BibleTime and the modules a bit more later tonight, maybe I
can figure out something.

Kind regards,
Kristof
