[sword-devel] Updating Clarke commentary to become readable

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Karl,
	They are commented out in thml->html filters because they are already 
valid html.  The filters ignore them and let the html renderer do what 
it should do.  It's odd that gnomesword doesn't work with that.  I 
wonder if we're stripping them out somewhere else.  I'd be interested in 
seeing the markup that thmlhtml outputs.  Maybe diatheke might be the 
easiest way to see that.  If you have a chance to try it out with a 
problem verse, please let me know what ya get.

	-Troy.
