<p>Yeah, the "I" is interpreted by our verse parser as a roman
numeral "1". In the early days we had to deal with roman numerals
in verse reference because of some very old commentaries. Is
there not another way to express 1st Corinthians? As it stands
now, anything with a trailing number (including a roman numeral)
will not be able to determine when the book ends and the chapter
starts. Sorry about that.</p>
<p>Thank you for hunting it down,</p>

<div>Dear All,</div>
<div>Now it is clear what happens.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It is related to localized book names in the [Text] section
of the locales.d/*.conf files.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Currently, it seems the problem occurs only if a book name
ends with " I". This occurs in two files: in la-utf8.conf and
hu-utf8.conf (Latin and Hungarian):</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>$ <b>grep " I$" *-utf8.conf</b><br>
hu-utf8.conf: Genesis=Mózes I<br
class="gmail-Apple-interchange-newline">
</div>
<div>la-utf8.conf:I Corinthians=Ad Corinthios I<br>
la-utf8.conf:I Thessalonians=Ad Thessalonicenses I<br>
la-utf8.conf:I Timothy=Ad Timotheum I<br>
la-utf8.conf:I Peter=Petri I<br>
la-utf8.conf:I John=Iohannis I<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If the locale is set to either "la" or "hu" by using e.g.</div>
<div>CSwordBibleModuleInfo::swordModule().getKey()->setLocale("hu"),
the book names ending with an " I" cannot be correctly
displayed. In BibleTime, nothing is shown from that book. In
Xiphos, only the first chapter is shown. Diatheke is not
affected.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Maybe you have a quick idea why this happens. I will try to
look a bit deeper in the SWORD code soon.</div>

<div>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.</div>
<div>/irony off</div>

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

<div>Greg, thanks for your quick response.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
It seems if I change BibleTime's setting Display >
Language for names of Bible books to English, then I
have no problem in BibleTime:
<div><img
src="cid:part1.ZWi9EdI3.Di2AgS7M@crosswire.org"
alt="image.png" width="507" height="272" class=""></div>
<div>Otherwise, if I change this to Hungarian (which
is the default for me), Genesis does not even show
up in BibleTime.</div>
<div>I thought this is a global setting for libsword,
but seemingly not. If I start Xiphos, I get the same
problem because the Bible book names are still shown
in Hungarian.</div>
<div>What I can force in Xiphos is to go to Edit >
Preferences > Options and set Special Locale to
English, then restart Xiphos and things work
correctly.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So maybe it's not about libsword but some
Hungarian settings (maybe some Hungarian modules)
that are used automatically during the search or
lookup.</div>
<div>I will try to search for that in the Hungarian
Bible modules and come back to you.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks, anyway!</div>

<div dir="ltr">Hi,
<div>I use BibleTime and Xiphos on Ubuntu
Linux 24.04. They are based on libsword
(version 1.9 at the moment). It seems that
both programs have issues when trying to
read Genesis or jumping on certain verses in
Genesis. This is independent of which module
(Bible translation) I use, I tried KJV and
others (including non-English translations),
but I guess there must be a bug somewhere in
libsword. Other books than Genesis work
fine.</div>
<div>Does anybody experience something like
this? I have been facing this problem
for a couple of years already, so maybe it's
related not to version 1.9 but also earlier
ones.</div>
<div>Thanks for any hints in advance.</div>
