If the Sword project provided OSIS modules for all its text that would be fine.
With OSIS there is a spec to go by.
I could start there within Squeak. If I needed to interface the Sword libraries then I could. I would have to be willing to limit access to those platforms for which it is available, but only for those Modules which aren't available in OSIS, GBF or other publicly spec'd/documented format.

It will not rely on any of the Sword DLLs or executables. This is something I've wanted for a long, long time.Please bear in mind that Sword is a library, and the module format is evolving. The ONLY reliable way to access Sword modules is to use the Sword API to interface with the library. Any attempt to access all the Sword modules directly will have to reproduce most of the Sword library and will then be left behind as Sword evolves. If they are any advantages with trying to work around the modules these drawbacks surely outweigh them. Glen
