There is a demo module with images(a RawLD4 module named imagesampler) in
the betaraw directory, which front-end developers can use for testing
purposes. Current CVS of Sword is needed. I would guess that GnomeSword
will work out of the box and that BibleTime may need a small addition to
its ThML filter if it wasn't already added.
Support in BibleCS is harder than I had believed, but I'm not ruling it
out completely yet.
For those interested in adding images to modules, the syntax is simply
<img src="/(filename).(jpg|jpeg|png|svg)"/> in ThML -- I included my
source .imp file in the module's directory. SVG won't be supported in
BibleCS, however. In OSIS it will be fairly similar: <figure
src="/(filename).(jpg|jpeg|png|svg)"/>. Please note that you can indicate
subdirectories (e.g. <img src="/images/aaron.jpg"/>) and that the initial
'/' is mandatory (at least for the moment--I'm not clear why we couldn't
assume a relative path for any address that omits a protocol).
