[sword-devel] Verse List to Clipboard

Good day,

One of the questions from our Thai users is about copying verses from a 
search list. There seems to be a limit to the number of verses that can 
be copied from the verse list to an external program. The limit seems to 
be related to a character/memory buffer size rather than a counting of 
the number of verses because it is possible to copy more verses in 
english than thai. Thai uses three bytes per character so I'm guessing 
this is why significantly fewer verses can be copied in Thai.

Could this memory export buffer be expanded? Or could the user be warned 
that not all verses could be copied to the buffer if the limit is exceeded?

Printing from the verse list does not have the same problem. It seems to 
print all the verse references to the preview window.
