Obviously I'm not understanding something here. When you mentioned that "JSword is not useful without the stylesheets", I assumed that you were positioning the stylesheets as part of JSword, hence my comments. I assumed JSword provided HTML output as Sword does, and so a stylesheet would be a necessary part. Does it only produce OSIS (or some equivalent) and then leave the application (BD, Alkitab, etc.) to format it by applying the stylesheet? If not, what is the division of responsibility between "application" and "library"?
