Installing Bibles into Downloaded Version

[Ken Vedder]

Hello!

I was curious if there were any supported methods to add new Bibles translations to the downloaded version besides the repositories that are available by default.

I have some e-sword files that I would like to use, bblx files I think? Is this possible?

If not, Id be open to other ways to import bibles.

You can add JSword modules into the Downloaded version. So you'd need to convert the e-sword to JSword. 
The converter at https://trumpet-call.org/simplebiblereader/ might work. 

Also edible.org has created https://haiola.org/ which I've used a couple of times but not with e-sword.
I and many others will be very interested to hear how your experiments go. 

All the best

Sounds like a challenge. I will report back.

Simple bible reader imported the bblx file just fine.

Couple more questions, I took the bblx and am not sure what file format jsword is. Would that be a .zip SWORD? Looks like this...




Where do I add the modules at in the GUI?

Nevermind, I had to go to my local server console to get the file selector to go.

Still need to know what a jsword file looks like tho.
