Troy,
Thanks for the response. I grabbed the OSIS 1.5 schema and will check
it out. Ah, for a Mac version of XML Spy. (Does anyone out there have
a decent XML workflow set up on a Mac?) Thanks also for the link to
the wiki. I didn't see that when I was looking around.
re:
"Display Bible text in OSIS w/ commentary or sermons in OSIS in the
left or right margin, depending on the page."
--I presume that means display the text with some formatting, not
display the actual OSIS markup?
I'm wary of getting in over my head with promises I can't keep, so for
now I'll just say I'll give this a look. The requests all seem pretty
straightforward, though. Feel free to forward more details about the
desired formatting if you've got any.
It'll be a pleasure to serve with you all in whatever way I can.
Andrew
