For all those interested I have set up a site to track bug & feature requests for the SharpSword wrapper, there is also a support wiki. It is all in the very early stages of development, but I will try to keep it updated. On a side note, this site is where I plan on developing a suite of software

Jason,   May I suggest a name for this wrapper? #sword, or Sharp Sword? Play on words of course. A lot of C# libraries have sharp in their names, but in this case we are talking about a sword too, which should be sharp. Sorry of this sounds lame or dull. Just a humble suggestion...   Thanks again

My bad - yes, the GRE is the Gecko Rendering Engine.  And I mis-typed.  I intended to point out that Biblestudy already has support for using Gecko with the wxMozilla library.  Therefore, Jason's attempt to rewrite Biblestudy into .NET might take an advantage from a .NET wrapping of that library.

MSIE has the advantage of already being installed on the user's system (no code overhead). But it has the disadvantage of not being a very good renderer, all things considered. And it's closed source. We've long desired to hook up Gecko (the renderer in Mozilla/Firefox) as our Windows renderer
