Regrets, Sword and e-sword are unrelated, and the module formats are not
compatible. There is no conversion process.

Many years ago, we were about to add support for direct usage of e-sword
modules, that is, without needing conversion, just install them
appropriately and use them as-is. We were threatened legally by Rick
Meyers' people, and after demonstrating that the then-current
incarnation of e-sword's modules had no actual password protection,
Meyers went silent and released a completely re-worked e-sword module
system less than 2 months later. That's why there exist e.g. both .bbl
and .bblx modules in e-sword.
