[sword-devel] Scripture references

Simon,

I like to use Perl scripts for this. Perl makes it easy to perform
such transformations on the text by way of "regular expressions".

If you are not familiar with perl, you might try to find an editor
that has support for "regular expressions". I am aware of BBEdit (MacOS)
and Proton (Windows, but _mighty_ slow for texts > 100K), but Google
might know more about this.

Greetings,
