Hi all,
we have some cool new stuff in CVS.

We now have beginnings to replace the footnotes/strongs/crossrefs/... shown in 
the text by displaying them in an info display window.
The feature works for footnotes already.

So you can hover over the yellow marker (defined by the current display 
template) and you can see the footnote inside the info display on the left/

We will support to show strong number definitions by moving the mouse over the 
word without having all these disgusting strong number links. Martin came up 
with this cool idea, BibleWorks does it in a similair way.

In the hidden places we also changed some code for the text rendering, which 
will (hopefully) soon improve printing and export quality.

I think this combined with display templates (which use the power of 
CSS/XHTML) improes the usability a lot.

I want to make the next release (1.4.2) a usability release. If you have 
something in mind which is nerving you while using BT please post this so we 
can fix this.


Joachim
