I suspect starting from the KJVA module is the correct approach for you Cyrille.

However, the conversion to all these formats reprocesses t

So I have a collection of files (based on vulgate and NRSV works) that will become commentaries. The first thing I'd like to address are the differences in the versification, primarily (for the vulgate stuff) so that commentary about Psalm 119 doesn't show up on 118 or 120. The only place I see t
