Hey Michael, grateful if you could advise when the database with the diacritical marks has been fixed and posted.
The update to SBL2 is live at the blog, copy it over all your old files and restart BibleWorks.
Wie -- This fixes the smart quotes problem and the Mark 2:10 issue. Please let me know if you find others.
The update to SBL is also now live at the blog. It fixes a number of issues. (no doubt issues may remain, or my changes might have caused new issues. Let me know)
Thanks much, Michael.

I'm in the process of trying to make the apparatus into a CHM file. I'm getting close, but the BW Create Module Index tool is not working (at least I can't get it to work right). I've sent the following email to support:
So if there's anyone out there who can get this to work right, have at it. :) I won't be able to get to this until after the weekend is over.Quote:
Hi BW folks,
I’m trying to compile the SBLGNT apparatus as a CHM file for BW.
I’ve got the HTML prepared: http://bibleworks.oldinthenew.org/module/sblgnt.zip
When I try to use the Build Module Index, the passages are only being indexed up to ‘chapter’ level. (Verses are not being indexed.)
So, for instance, a reference like Mat 1:5 is being given the following code:
<a name="ref1" href="javascript:BwRef('Mat 1')" onMouseOut="javascript:BwUnPop()" onMouseOver="javascript:BwPop('Mat 1')">Mat 1</a>:5

Michael Hanel was quick to get the new SBL Greek New Testament (SBLGNT) compiled into a new BibleWorks version that can display in the Browse Window along with any other version. This new version shows the diacritical marks used by Michael Holmes to indicate the presence of variants.
Now, in addition to the base text, the critical apparatus is available as a BibleWorks CHM module!
This module works best if you have also installed the SBL Greek font.
DOWNLOAD! — CHM module of the SBLGNT critical apparatus. To install: unzip the files and copy to your \databases\ folder and restart BibleWorks. The SBLGNT Apparatus will be linked in the Resources|Text Criticism menu, and it will also show up in your Analysis Window under the Resources Summary Tab (if there is an entry for the particular verse you are browsing).
See also Michael’s previous post for information about the SBLGNT text available as a BibleWorks version (with/without diacritics).
The main SBL version files (with diacritical marks) and the critical apparatus are available in a single ZIP file (unzip all to your /databases/ folder and restart BibleWorks to install).
Thanks Jim. Great job! (And Michael too!)
The SBLGNT end user license agreement states:
The current web host that we use for the BibleWorks Blog (Yahoo!) does not keep track of stats for non-html files. That means I have no quick way of keeping track of how many times the files are downloaded. Does anyone out there have any ideas. I'll have a clunky workaround in place this afternoon, but I'd rather have something more 'elegant'.Quote:
If you give away the SBLGNT for use with a commercial product or sell a print or electronic work containing more than 500 verses from the SBLGNT, you must annually report the number of units sold, distributed, and/or downloaded to the Society of Biblical Literature’s Rights and Permissions Office.
Well, I think I've found a solution using Goo.gl, Google's URL shortening service. It allows one to keep track of the number of clicks a link gets. Hopefully that will provide a fair enough number to provide SBL.
If you happen to share links with friends to these BibleWorks files, please use either a direct link to the BibleWorks blog (here or here), or to this forum thread. Do not link directly to the files (unless you use the goo.gl links).
