Dear OpenBSD Ports Tree coordinators, Find textproc/sword attached.
Description from https://crosswire.org/sword/index.jsp The SWORD Project is the CrossWire Bible Society's free Bible software project. Its purpose is to create cross-platform open-source tools-- covered by the GNU General Public License-- that allow programmers and Bible societies to write new Bible software more quickly and easily. We also create Bible study software for all readers, students, scholars, and translators of the Bible, and have a growing collection of many hundred texts in around 100 languages. Port Information/Discussion To prepare this, I have (lightly) edited the well-tested SWORD port from the Aprendiendo de Jesus (adJ) project (an OpenBSD distribution -- aprendiendo.pasosdejesus.org) to ensure that it aligns with the exact requirements set forth in the Porter's Guide. I submit the result upstream with permission from adJ's lead developer (see https://gitlab.com/pasosdeJesus/adJ/-/issues/10#note_1349140519). At least two other ports of SWORD have been submitted to ports@ over the years, indicating that it has some popular demand. It is widely used in academic and religious circles. SWORD has some (limited) end-user utility on its own, since it includes the `diatheke` CLI that is itself front-ended by several other CLI and TUI utilities. Perhaps more importantly, SWORD is the back-end for many popular GUI and TUI applications for the study of biblical literature. Two such applications are BibleTime (Qt5-based) and Xiphos (GTK-based), both of which the adJ project also has ported cleanly to OpenBSD. Before submitting BibleTime and/or Xiphos to ports@, however, I decided to submit SWORD for acceptance first -- as much to check that I understand every step of this process as anything else. As this is my first submission, I am especially open to any and all feedback.
