    <div>Multiple \mt# titles are fine. Multiple
      \h titles are not. There is no \h1 or \h2, only \h.<br>
      Preserving the bilingual running headers of the print edition
      would have to be done in a typesetting/printing process. Multiple
      \h headers would not have the desired effect in any electronic
      publication format I&#39;m aware of, including Sword and HTML. Haiola,
      for example, when reading USFM to make web pages or inScript
      modules, will only remember the last \h encountered in a book, and
      probably throw an error if there is an \h1 tag. Paratext will
      throw an error at multiple \h tags or including a level number in
      \h.<br>
      <br>
      USFM represents a common core of tags that is necessary to
      represent the text of a Bible, but is by design not flexible
      enough to do anything you want. OSIS is, but only if you write
      both the input and output processes-- and that isn&#39;t very
      practical. My recommendation for now is to omit the English
      running headers in the Malayalam Bible USFM. If you want to mark
      where they should be for the future, you can do so with \rem
      (remark or comment) tags. Those won&#39;t go into Sword modules or
      other common output formats, but could be manually read and acted
      upon by someone doing manual typesetting in the future.<br>

                                      <div>Hello, Baiju.<br>
                                        <br>
                                        The USFM looks mostly good, but
                                        the title set seems to be in
                                        need of editing. Also, proper
                                        USFM requires that a paragraph
                                        type be started between any
                                        chapter mark and the first
                                        verse. Normally, this is just a
                                        plain paragraph, like<br>
                                        <br>
                                        \c 1<br>
                                        \p<br>
                                        \v 1 ആദിമുതലുള്ളതും ഞങ്ങൾ
                                        കേട്ടതും സ്വന്ത കണ്ണുകൊണ്ടു
                                        കണ്ടതും ഞങ്ങൾ നോക്കിയതും<br>
                                        \v 2 ...<br>
                                        <br>
                                        Also, the \h, \toc1, \toc2,
                                        \toc3, and \mt tags should all
                                        be in the vernacular (i.e.
                                        Malayalam), and appear in that
                                        order.<br>
                                        \h is a short title (i.e. &quot;1
                                        John&quot;) of the book for running
                                        headers and book selection links<br>
                                        \toc1 is the long title (i.e.
                                        &quot;The First Letter from the
                                        Apostle John&quot;)<br>
                                        \toc2 is the short title (i.e.
                                        &quot;1 John&quot;)<br>
                                        \toc3 is the abbreviation of
                                        this book used in footnotes and
                                        cross references (i.e. &quot;1 Jn&quot;)<br>
                                        The \mt set can be used like:<br>
                                        \mt2 The First Letter from the
                                        Apostle<br>
                                        \mt1 John<br>
                                        <br>
                                        Normally, \h and \toc2 have the
                                        same content, give or take
                                        capitalization.<br>
                                        Normally, \toc1 is the same as
                                        all of the \mt# tags
                                        concatenated together (but not
                                        always, as sometimes translators
                                        put both long and short titles
                                        in their entirety in those tags)<br>
                                        If \toc3 is present, it should
                                        be a consistently-used
                                        abbreviation or it may be the

                                            <pre>Hi,

I have added few USFM files for Malayalam bible here:
<a href="https://bitbucket.org/sathyavedapusthakam/svpm" target="_blank">https://bitbucket.org/sathyavedapusthakam/svpm</a>
Please review the file structure and let me know if any changes required.

I have created USFM files for those books which I proofread myself.
So it may take more time to complete this work unless more volunteers
coming forward to proofread the text.

                                              <pre>Hi,

The source files were uploaded by Nishad H. Kaippally to wiki source:

<a href="http://ml.wikisource.org/wiki/%E0%B4%89%E0%B4%AA%E0%B4%AF%E0%B5%8B%E0%B4%95%E0%B5%8D%E0%B4%A4%E0%B4%BE%E0%B4%B5%E0%B5%8D:Kaippally" target="_blank">http://ml.wikisource.org/wiki/%E0%B4%89%E0%B4%AA%E0%B4%AF%E0%B5%8B%E0%B4%95%E0%B5%8D%E0%B4%A4%E0%B4%BE%E0%B4%B5%E0%B5%8D:Kaippally</a>

He also maintains another source here:
<a href="http://www.malayalambible.in" target="_blank">http://www.malayalambible.in</a>
<a href="http://www.malayalambible.in/docs_faq.htm" target="_blank">http://www.malayalambible.in/docs_faq.htm</a> (FAQ)

If nobody else working on Malayalam, I would like to start working on it. I
am very new here, so I need some pointers to start.

I am thinking to use wiki source version as the base. Should I move that
source into a different format (non wiki) ? Should I keep it under version
control ?

Looking forward to your suggestions.

                                                <pre>That page is in Malayalam, but appears to claim the bible being presented
at that wikisource page is an 1870 British and Foreign Bible Society work
(possibly updated in 1910).  However, my ability to read Malayalam is
somewhat nonexistent.  One of the links close to the Bottom takes you to
individual page views of a PDF which claims on this page:

India Bible. Please report errors in content to <a href="mailto:kaippally@gmail.com" target="_blank">kaippally@gmail.com</a>

It looks like a clean source (from the standpoint of provenance) if this
can be verified.

Hi,
Is there anyone working on Malayalam (Indian language) module ?
I found this free text here. Is it possible to use it as a source ?
