[sword-devel] search issue in 2TGreek

Purely by accident I discovered a search problem in 2TGreek, using Xiphos
4.2.1.72. Yes, I know I need to update to 4.3, but, life, ya know? :)

Anyway, in an online study of Revelation this morning there was some
discussion of the meaning/how to translate the last word in Rev 1:8:
παντοκράτωρ
as well as the limited distribution of it in the NT.

So I fired up Xiphos, installed the 3 greek modules from Crosswire and did
some searches.
Oddly enough, doing a search for that word, using "exact phrase" says it
can be found in Matt 8:17, Mark 13:35, II Cor 6:18, II Tim 1:5, Titus 3:9
and 1 Peter 4:19.

doing the same search in the tischmorph module turns up only the ones in
Rev and II Cor.

So, looked up the matthew reference and find that word isn't there!

Haven't actually looked at the others, but if one is wrong the other
unexpected ones probably are too.

doing the same search with Lucene, in the same module (2TGreek) doesn't
turn up any hits in the NT.

Two oddities here, anybody got any clues?

Thanks in advance!

Fred
