In addition to that I firstly published Zefania XML to CSV Converter 0.3. This tool converts Zefania-Sharp XML Files to CSV files that are compatible to openlp.org.

Thirdly, the German Bible versions Schlachter 1951 and Luther 1545 are now avaliable for download.

well, on my linux, its just ./configure && make, but on this windows machine, it was just a pain. i had to download several hundred megs of software and then run a little command that took just a few seconds. preparing this, getting all the libraries – with just a tiny bit of documentation how to build pysqlite-2.x but never for python 2.5 – since pysqlite2 is now in the main tree… i can tell you.

anyways, 5 hours later, I proudly present you pysqlite-1.0.1.win32-py2.5.exe fully compatible with all sqlite 2.x databases (which is what openlp.org uses at the moment.)

I also realised, that the installer that was linked on the openlp.org Utilities page was outdated. Please upgrade to pygtk-2.12.1-2.win32-py2.5.exe, pygobject-2.14.1-1.win32-py2.5.exe, pycairo-1.4.12-1.win32-py2.5.exe and gtk2-runtime-2.14.3-2008-09-25-ash.exe to use the tools on windows.

If I have some spare time, I will probably create a installer for your convenience.

As long with this there is an update to the openlp.org Database Tools, now 0.4.1 – just a little bugfix for Windows uses. And now it should work like charm, even on M$ Computers (see screenshot)

I really wish we’d update to sqlite3 soon… Then all of this hazzle is not relevant anymore. Remember: pysqlite 1 development stopped 2004!!
