I had a few minutes free & decided to try converting my STEP Bibles to Sword
again. The step2vpl is still crashing, but the stepdump seems to work. It
spits out a 14MB file that looks like:
 
Reading Version Record (16 bytes)
Version Record Information
versionRecordSize: 18
publisherID: 21
bookID: 156
setID: 0

conversionProgramVerMinor: 0

========== skip a bunch of lines ===========
 
Then, way down in all of this stuff, I see:
 
\stepconcordanceoff {\*\stepconcordanceon }
 
\plain \steplang1033 \b1 \fs32 Genesis 1
\stepconcordanceoff {\*\stepconcordanceon }
 
\par \pard \fi360 \sa60 
\stepstartlevel3 
 
\stepconcordanceoff {\*\stepconcordanceon }
 
\plain \stepconcordanceoff \v1 \steplang1033 
\v0 \super 1{\*\stepconcordanceon }\nosupersub In the beginning God
created\stepconcordanceoff \v1 
\steplink 
 
\v0 \super \f14 \'a3
{\*\steplinkto1 0000034575}
 
{\*\stepconcordanceon }\nosupersub \f0 the heavens and the earth. \pard
\fi360 \sa60 
\stepstartlevel4 
 
This format continues for the rest of the Bible. Now the question is: what
on earth do I do with this dump file to turn it into a Sword module?
 
Thanks in advance,
