There are several steps to get this working (don’t blame me, blame Logos).
1. Select Citation Style
You will need to create a custom style. These are two options (modify as needed/desired):
With Verse Numbers
%NoFootnotes
%NoCitation
%UseBibleParagraphs
=Header
<p>
<b>[FullPassageRef] ([Version])</b>:
»
=ForEachVerse<sup>[VerseNum]</sup> [VerseText]
=Footer
«</p>
Without Verse Numbers
%NoFootnotes
%NoCitation
%UseBibleParagraphs
=Header
<p>
<b>[FullPassageRef] ([Version])</b>:
»
=ForEachVerse[VerseText]
=Footer
«</p>{
}
2. Set up Scripting
You will need a clipboard handler (or similar) that can be scripted, unless you want to do this manually every time you need to cite something. If you’re using macOS, I highly recommend Pastebot [eventually, I’ll make this a link].
There are four steps. Technically, you need only the first two, but the third and fourth fix improper quotes (i.e., those with a closing, but no opening, quotation mark), and so it’s best to use all four.
- find:
»\n+
replace:» - find:
\n+«
replace:« - find:
(»([^“"].*(”|"))«)
replace:»“$2« - find:
»(.*)"
replace:»$1”
3. Test and Implement
Make sure everything is working as intended (feel free to paste a verse or a handful of verses into this thread) and then create a keyboard shortcut for your new ‘paste with formatting’ option (I use control + shift + v).
These can, of course, be easily modified to change quotation mark style (e.g., » and « to “ and ”) or any number of other things.
