Do you mean that one way would be how you displayed the text for the console/terminal using cout << ?

In the mean time, see SWDisp. And for an example you can see >some of the other frontends, how they implement different types of >displayers.

My current solution is like this: const char * BibleObject::getVerse(const char *keyStr) { ListKey result; VerseKey parserKey; result = parserKey.ParseVerseList(keyStr, parserKey, true); result.Persist(true); mBible->SetKey(result); char* returnBuffer = Con::getReturnBuffer(2024); *returnBuffer = 0; U32 numCharsInBuffer = 0; for(*mBible = TOP; !mBible->Error(); (*mBible)++) { const char *ns = mBible->StripText(); U32 strLength = dStrlen(ns); if(numCharsInBuffer + strLength >= 2024) { // Verse string was too long and was truncated break; } dStrcat(returnBuffer,ns); numCharsInBuffer += strLength; } return returnBuffer; } As you can see the result's length is limited. But of course I could and should use something like std::string and return that but I just wanted to make this in the right way. >Hope this helps. Glad you're making progress. > It sure does! Thanks. It's alright if I can't get a perfect solution for this now that I do have a code that works. May God bless you too Troy.
