In principle they are part of the text In implementation, thet are not. The pilcrows are held in an attribute as a Unicode character. (OSIS doesn't allow ¶ or other non XML entities.) They are a special type of punctuation.

We'd have to change the plain text filter to show them. The Lucene analyzer strips punctuation and may strip it.

Further to the lengthy thread about Pilcrows in a recent topic, here's a new
slant.

If "Pilcrows are part of the KJV text", then it should in principle be
feasible to use the search feature of any SWORD front end to generate a
verse list containing all the verses that start with a Pilcrow.

This needs testing for each front end.
