[sword-devel] KJV2006 - 4th Beta

[L.Allan-pbio]

Thanks for working on this.

I would add a vote for providing KjvLite (with all or most of the embedded 
tags removed.)

LcdBible does a one-time detagging of verses with a one-pass state-machine 
defilter, and puts the entire contents in a 4 meg buffer .... and 
"brute-force" strstr searches are about 10x - 50x faster. I've been working 
on Boyer-Moore-Horspool searching, which can be quite a bit faster once the 
search word(s) are four characters or longer.
