[sword-devel] .Net/C# and Sword

Yesterday I got sword compiling with Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition
as a DLL. Using that DLL, I got SWIG to generate a C# wrapper for me.
That C# wrapper was then compiled with Visual C# 2005 Express Edition.
I then proved that I was able to query the list of installed modules
and look up keys in them.

BTW, the Express Editions are FREE visual studio products.

I plan to rewrite biblestudy using C# very soon. This new version of
BibleStudy will be windows specific, because linux does not yet have
great support for the Windows.Forms package in .net, but using the C#
library under linux (with Mono) is very much a possibility.

I plan to make the DLL's available for download soon. If anyone wants
to play with them sooner than soon, let me know. They are probably
small enough to just send to the mailing list.
