Hi there ........... I've been checking out the Linux frontends alongside BibleCS for various features. I note that GnomeSword and BibleDesktop do not handle 'linked verses' properly. All the other frontends seem to work OK with these. I mention this, because I am at present negotiating with the copyright holder for the JB Phillips New Testament. If this is successful, we will be adding a version which makes heavy use of linked verses.
As an example, the Phillips version has verses one to eighteen of Matt 1 as a block with no verse breaks. Most chapters contain blocks of at least six verses. This is done to increase the readibility, and it would not be proper to alter this feature. Chris Little told me some years ago that the proper way to handle this feature was by linking verses, and the Phillips module I have here uses that method. It hasn't been a problem so far as I don't think any of the modules currently on offer use linking - am I right? I am hopeful that we may find a way of offering the Phillips module, although negotiations are at a very early stage so far. Please keep this in prayer.
