Johan,
	I don't have a wince handheld right now, but would like to help you out 
a little on this project.  Can you tell me exactly what version of the 
development tools to download (possibly with a link), and how I might 
get things compiled?  I'm guessing that they come with some kind of 
emulator for debugging, so I can still help without a device; is this 
correct?

My plans:
	Get all required modifications to the sword library into the main sword 
CVS repository.

	Split your frontend out from the sword code and be sure it compiles 
against the latest sword CVS repository.

	Get your frontend checked into CVS so we can keep it version controlled 
and can share in the development together.

	Try a few unicode modules out and be sure we can get it working with at 
least Greek, Hebrew, and Roman scripts.

	And finally, I'll help you with your question about turning options on 
and off.  If you get time before I get all these previous things done, 
the functions that you'll want to look at are SWMgr::getGlobalOptions, 
and others right around that one in the include file.

	Excited to work together on this.  I know many people are overjoyed 
that you've started this and accomplished so much!

	-Troy.
