My take on this is that the TomTom FAT32 use is not necessarily relevant. It depends. If you build CHM technology into the engine then that would probably be relevant, but if you use Windows to display CHM then it is probably not relevant. The Sword Project for Windows used CHM for its help fil

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Compiled_HTML_Help CHM is not exactly opensource. Microsoft successfully sued TomTom for using FAT32 formatting in it's GPS systems without paying any royalties to Microsoft. That's the old (Gates, Balmer) Microsoft, but still it's a proprietary technology

Thanks Dominique, It seems like the format is fairly straightforward.  We could probably add a CHMGenBook impl along with our RawGenBook impl and let these be used the same as any other GenBook within SWORD.  Then we need to pick a Markup configuration for these.  The markup format could currently

A while back I wrote about Bibleworks and its legacy. As part of my further research I found that Bibleworks uses instead of a GenBook format for user supplied books of that category the CHM format. How ubiquitous is CHM on our platforms? If all platforms can use it , we could probably tap int

Greg is right and Troy is right. :) The need to support specified footnote markers in Bibles is less than for genbooks and commentaries. Implicitly I meant to refer to the latter. Again, this gets back what philosophy of module creation to use. It is fine to separate form and structure as long
