Sure Tobias, module->getEntryAttributes() will allow you to pull the headings from a verse, and
an Entry Attributes search for '/Heading' will give you only the verses with Heading entries attributes. I've thrown together a quick example here, which you can use with something like: ./showHeadings NASB Matt-John which will give you the headings from the Gospels. https://crosswire.org/svn/sword/trunk/examples/tasks/findHeadings.cpp Creating this example, I found I needed to fix a bug in the engine. The engine Entry Attributes search lets you search for values in the entry attributes (e.g., a Strong's number 1234). In your use case, when searching, you don't care about the value; you only care about presence. This wasn't working, but simple presence can now be searched for with my latest commit.
