I must not have the right
to create new pages on the wiki, so I will need someone to create one
for me to start working on what I proposed. It could be called "What
SWORD Application is Right for Me?".

This discussion about deprecating BibleCS is no doubt fueled by the fact
that it's name suggests it is THE flagship program for Windows. To be
sure, for English (and other ascii-friendly languages) users, it is a
feature rich alternative. However, given that it has limitations with
regard to non-ascii support for localization and module navigation, I
don't think it should dominate over other front-ends.
True
[..]
1. Rename BibleCS to something less dominating than "The SWORD Project
for Windows." Call it BibleCS or whatever, but rename it. (One could
argue that MacSword would also need to be renamed, but I don't think
that's the case. MacSword is undergoing continuous development, not just
maintained and supported as with BibleCS.)
I support this.
2. Add a comparison table for desktop front-ends called "Which SWORD
application is right for me?" or something like that. I would be happy
to contribute to this. It could include columns for OS's supported, RtoL
support, localization, layout style, development status (not maintained,
maintained, under ongoing development, etc.), and other items. I may put
something up on the wiki and see where it goes. If it becomes useful for
the main page at some point then it can be moved.
I think this is an excellent idea.
