Hi Ken,

There is information about that in the Howto section of the online help,
but after reviewing it, it looks outdated.

Here is the updated text:

How to create a custom versification system or language?
If the versification system or language you need does not come with
Bibledit, then you can create your own language or versification system
and add it to Bibledit yourself. To do that, take an existing
versification textfile or language textfile from /usr/share/bibledit,
edit it, and save it in the data directory, subdirectory templates.

Notes.

The versification files start with versification_, the mapping files
with mapping_, and the language files with language_. It is important to
keep that first bit, else Bibledit won't recognize the files.

If the name of a template you added is the same as the name one of the
templates that come with Bibledit, your template will be taken.

It would be greatly appreciated if you were willing to share the files
you have created with others. In that way others will benefit from the
work that you have already done. A good way of sharing it with the
community is to submit it for inclusion into Bibledit. That way it
becomes available to others in the next release.

Teus.
