<div>FYI.</div>

</div>
<div>I have written directly to Vince offering to assist with the file conversion. </div>
<div>cc to DM Smith only.</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>I think this text development project is better taken offline from now on.</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>Aside: USFM files can be edited in any decent Unicode text editors.</div>
<div>For simple projects such as this, dedicated Bible editing software is usually not necessary.</div>
<div>
<br />
</div>
<div>Best regards,</div>

Hello, and thank you for accepting my request to join the mailing list. My name is Vince LaRue and I'm a missionary in Southern Chile. I use Eloquent almost exclusively, despite the frequent crashes, and I'd like to do whatever is in my limited (non-programmer)
capacity to help the SWORD project.
<br />
<br />I'm also the tech guy for what <span style="font-style: italic;">used to
be</span> the Valera Bible Society (Sociedad Bíblica Valera) before it was put on ice, and now the website, <a href="http://www.valera1865.org/">www.valera1865.org</a>, which I run, is a source for information about the RV1865. We've had the Bible itself
back in print for 17 years now, but the various digital versions have been plagued with sundry typographical issues. I'm fixing that.
<br />
<br />We're basically done with a complete, verse-by-verse overhaul of the text, and I have it in a cleaned-up verse-per-line format in basic HTML (each verse enclosed in <p> tags) broken down into 23 text files. I would like to produce a high-quality
OSIS version that I can continue to work on, adding various tags throughout the text, but the goal is to get it ready for distribution immediately.
<br />
<br />What are the steps that I need to take to make this happen? Are there utilities that can convert what I have to OSIS-compatible XML? Here's a sample:
<br />
<br /><p>EL EVANGELIO DE NUESTRO SEÑOR JESU CRISTO SEGÚN</p>
<br />
<br /><h1 align="left" >SAN MATEO</h1>
<br />
<br /><p> CAPITULO 1</p>
<br />
<br /><p>1 Libro de la generación de Jesu Cristo, hijo de David, hijo de Abraham.</p>
<br />
<br /><p>2 Abraham engendró a Isaac; e Isaac engendró a Jacob; y Jacob engendró a Júdas, y a sus hermanos;</p>
<br />
<br /><p>3 Y Júdas engendró de Tamar a Fares y a Zara; y Fares engendró a Esrom; y Esrom engendró a Aram;</p>
<br />
<br />Thank you again for your time, and I look forward to working with you all.
<br />
<br />In Christ,
<br />
<br />Vince LaRue
