The sword program for windows (and I am virtually certain the Linux version as well) has problems rendering the Hebrew correctly for both the Modern Hebrew version and the BHS. The problems are as follows:
1. The Masoretic marks that are not vowels points appear as "special character" boxes. 2. The right-to-left direction that Hebrew is read is not followed by your browser. So, sentences end up being partitioned inappropriately 3. The numbers for the verse end up at the end of the verse, not the beginning I am not a good programmer but I may be able to help someone by having them do work and then I check it to make sure that the rendering is proper. I have made a Word doc that illustrates what I am saying. I have also included screen shots of a program that renders the text properly for your reference.
