That's very exciting!!  I'll start sharpening up my building skills on
Mac and Windows again, as I believe that the next natural place to go
after the Linux bugs are all worked out.  Obviously, with the presence
of MacSword native to Mac, that's not as important as Windows which is
just now beginning to have usable SWORD frontends, but it'll probably
be easier to have it built on Mac before trying on Windows and will
help work out some XP bugs.

I look forward to seeing the changes.
