Troy,
	I now see the reason why you decidied to put it into the frontend. I every 
thought it's done in your Windows frontend so I thought I have to put it into 
the frontend also.
I never saw something in the Changelog of Sword that this fix was done in the 
library, thats's why I thought it might be wrong.

I changed now BibleTime to make use of it.

It's ok now.

Thank you for yor answer!
Joachim
