OCTADEINFOSTORM FOR BIBLE TRANSLATION AND SWORD MODULE PACKAGING<br><br>I seek information and experienced counsel to create a package for sword readers, and secondarily after that for step Bible readers eSword and legacy readers.<br><br>I am researching different markup languages and tool chains for Bible translation, Bible preservation, commentaries, lexicons, etc. as well as for creating sword modules and step modules. I will be working with Hebrew, Greek, and English.<br><br>I wish to convert hundreds of pages of outlines and notes into a commentary. Then I wish to package said commentary for step readers and sword-based bible readers like Xiphos and Bibletime. The commentary will be authored in English with copious notes about the original languages, culture, and idioms relevant to some passages.<br><br>I hope to find experienced people who can give me information to point the way.<br><br>Keep in mind that I can only use Linux and not Windows or Mac. No Windows or Mac software is any good to me.<br><br>I am trying to get information and links for:<br><br>- markup schemes (OSIS, USFM, ThML, and anything else, including niche or obscure schemes)<br>- markup converters<br>- indexers<br>- lexers<br>- module converters / packagers<br>- repository software<br>- collaboration software<br>- step readers<br>- bible module readers<br>- citation / reference / bibtex management<br>- license management<br>- fonts<br>- grammars<br>- translator notes collections and compendiums<br>- repositories of scanned texts, parchments, scrolls, papyri<br>- existing public domain or copyleft texts in English, Greek, Hebrew languages, especially plaintext ASCII and UTF8 files<br>- modern Greek and Hebrew analytical grammars covering especially the more contested and difficult passages of text<br>- Biblical cultural, ethnology, and philology resources<br><br>... and anything else considered relevant by experienced Bible translators, preservationists, publishers and sword module packagers.<br><br>If anyone here in the electronic ether is doing any work along these lines please give me links to the resources, tools and schemes you use so I can investigate and start piecing together a machine for the task.<br><br>Thank you, and God bless you!<br><br><a href="https://soc.octade.net?t=bible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow
