Script to find a best fit v11n

Hi,

Several have commented on how hard it is to test an OSIS xml file against v11ns especially since it goes off into an infinite loop. (I’ve posted a patch that fixes that) But it is still a process of trial and error to find an appropriate v11n.

So, I’ve been iterating with chatGPT to create a python script to find a best fit v11n. Since I don’t know python, I can’t vouch for the script beyond it worked for a simple test case that had an extra chapter for Genesis and had some extra verses at the end of a chapter in that book.

I offer it, as a starting place. See the attached file.

It has a —debug flag.
The first argument is expected to be the OSIS xml file.
The second argument is optional and gives the location to the include directory of svn/sword/trunk/include with all the canon*.h files. If you don’t supply the argument, it uses the web to load the canon*.h files from https://www.crosswire.org/svn/sword/trunk/include. 

It will score the fitness of each of the v11ns. It gives the score as a %, but I don’t know what that means. I told it that it should prioritize book matches, then chapter matches and finally verse matches. I don’t know how well it did that scoring. I didn’t test for that.

The output is alphabetized. If more than one v11n have the same high score, they are listed.

In His Service,
	DM
