RegexForAccordance

[Darin Franklin]

Hi Fabian.  I will summarize here what we discussed in private messages.

 

The regular expression you want is: ^\W*and\b

If you use only this: ^and

then it fails to find Mark 8:20 because of the leading quotation mark, and it matches Mark 3:18, which starts with "Andrew".

 

Mark 8:20 “And the seven for the four thousand, how many baskets full of broken pieces did you take up?” And they said to him, “Seven.”

Mark 3:18 Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Zealot,

 

^ matches the beginning of the line

\W* matches zero or more non-word characters, like punctuation and space.

\b matches a word boundary.

 

This results in 394 verses for Mark, and the list matches what Accordance finds with this query:

and <WITHIN 1 Words> [FIELD BEGIN] <AND> [RANGE Mark]

 

I can't reproduce your result of 329 verses.  Let me know if you ever see it again.

Many thanks for the 1.0.9 update. 

 

May you wan't to check the Dark Mode feature? The text on the left side is nearly unreadable.

Thank you very much. Version 1.0.10 fixes Dark Mode.



 
I also updated the documentation page with some more detailed examples.

• Acrostics of the Tetragrammaton
• Counting Letters and Words
• Palindromes
• Repeated Phrases
• Capitalized Greek Words

Version 1.0.9 fixed the problem with Accordance 13.1 that I mentioned in another post.

Hello Darin 

 

Many thanks.

 

Is there a search "How many words per verse".

E.g in

 

Verse     Hits

Gen 1:1  7

Gen 1:2  8

Gen 1:3  5

 

Thanks

No, it does not show the number of hits for each verse.

Hello Darin

 

The Quran verse scheme is a little bit different in Accordance. First it comes the Q and then the chapter/book number, like Q2. After them there is a space and then comes the verse number. Like Q2 13. Accordance handle here the Books and the Chapter equal. So if you press the arrow for next chapter or next book it goes from Q2 to Q3. 

 

If I'm now on the European notation, your Quran export looks like   Q2 20,25,72,87,100,167,178,191,217,229-231,233,266,286; Q3 4,21,37,81,165

 

The Problem now is. In the European notation to add verses on the same Chapter there are a dot not a comma. The Comma is to distinguish between the chapter and the verses. Like Luke 18,3 and Luke 18,3.5. I know some older notation use also the dot to distinguish between the chapter and the verses.

 

If I now press the ref button I got an error in Accordance. Der Eintrag “Q2 20,25,72,87,100,167,178,191,217,229-231,233,266,286; Q3 4,21,37,81,165; Q4 56,91,93,157; Q5 36,64,70,103; Q6 31,99,110,138,141-142; Q7 8-9,31,157,189; Q8 29,41,56; Q9 29,80,83,124,126-127; Q10 41; Q11 38,40; Q12 65,72; Q13 12; Q14 50; Q15 2; Q16 7,14,81; Q17 4,7,31,33,51,69,97; Q18 32,48; Q20 37,39,55,100-101,111; Q22 2,5,22,58; Q23 27,44,62; Q24 6,8,54,58; Q25 1,14; Q26 119,157; Q27 44,49; Q28 54,76; Q32 20; Q33 31,58,72; Q35 11-12,18; Q36 41,79; Q37 146; Q38 15; Q39 68; Q40 11; Q41 1,21,47; Q47 4; Q50 9-10; Q53 13,38; Q54 13,20; Q55 11,54; Q59 2,5; Q60 12; Q62 5,10; Q67 3-4,8; Q68 46; Q69 7; Q71 7; Q76 21; Q79 6-7; Q80 29,31; Q82 8; Q84 17; Q104 6; Q111 1” kann nicht gefunden werden.

 

If the verse refs are Q2 20.25.72.87 it works. So to export from RegexforAccordance to add more verses it needs the . not the , 

 

To Test you can use the Hebrew Quran on http://www.accordancefiles1.com/exchange/tools.htm

 

Thanks

Thanks, Fabian.  I fixed this in version 1.0.11 by adding a user preference: Preferences > Advanced > Use European verse notation.  The problem happens in any single-chapter book, like Obadiah.

Thanks for the amazing work you have done!

Hello Darin 

 

Many thanks. 

 

A question is there a reason the results are now in sektions? Is this due to the change of 13.1?

 

 

Thanks again.

It limits the length of the accord URL, or else Accordance will crash. It has always done that.

[Fabian]

Ah thanks. 

 

May you consider a Universal App for the Apple M1? Or do you have to wait until GitHub is ready for it? If I'm not wrong then I see no GitHub App in my arsenal which is M1 ready.
