[jsword-devel] Re: Font as applet resource?

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Joe,
	Well, yes and no.  There is a repository in cvs called modedit which is 
the collaborative java tool that allowed our KJV2003 team to add 
strong's markup to the KJV-- yes.

	The ModEdit in the jsword-old repository was a sample app for The 
Society of Biblical Literature's Project eL.  It simply provides a means 
to plug in custom keyboard mappings and load font and text via an URL.

	Hope your weeks goes smooth and looking forward to you or one of your 
guys helping SBL out with this!

	-Troy.
