A native Python reader of the SWORD Project Bible Modules

This project is **not** an official `CrossWire <http://crosswire.org/>`_
project. It merely provides an alternative way to read the bible modules
created by CrossWires `SWORD <http://crosswire.org/sword/index.jsp>`_ project.

Features
--------

-  Read SWORD bibles (not commentaries etc.)
-  Detection of locally installed bible modules.
-  Supports all known SWORD module formats (ztext, ztext4, rawtext,
   rawtext4)
-  Read from zipped modules, like those available from
   http://www.crosswire.org/sword/modules/ModDisp.jsp?modType=Bibles
-  Clean text of OSIS, GBF or ThML tags.
-  Supports both python 2.7 and 3.3+ [*]_ (CI tested with 2.7 to 3.10)

.. [*] pysword makes use of io.open (introduced in python 2.6 and the unicode literal (available in pyhton 2 and
   reintroduced in python 3.3 - PEP 414)
