Convert USFM to USX #53

Open shadow-light opened 2 years ago

shadow-light commented 2 years ago

Hi there, we're trying to get all available Bibles into a common format. The DBL only publishes in USX (at least for many bibles) where as a lot of others are available in USFM. These formats are said to be easily converted but is there an easy CLI to do so? We'd like to work with 1000s of bibles so using Paratext GUI isn't an option.

Is there an official CLI for USFM -> USX?

The best we could find was a fork that doesn't look maintained: https://github.com/unfoldingWord-dev/USFM-Tools

Thanks

For future readers, we ended up using https://github.com/schierlm/BibleMultiConverter which has the ParatextConverter tool for direct conversion.
