Hey guys, Thanks for the patch. I think there is some information that is lacking in the discussion:
The *plain.cpp filters are primarily used in the engine as 'strip' filters. These are filters which get called before performing a search on a verse buffer. They are intended to prepare verse text for searching. If you are looking for a 'render' filter which outputs end user readable ascii-only markup ("[]{}//", etc), then these do not exist. Strip filters are the closest thing and would be a good starting point if you want to add a new FMT_ render type. Hope this helps. -Troy. Greg Hellings wrote: > Sorry, disregard the previous patch.
