OK, I've made a start - it now builds and runs on my machine.  Attached
is a trivial patch to print an error message if the KJV module isn't
installed (guess what I forgot to do initially :-), and to make the
Strongs-based lessons work as well as the KJV phrases.

BTW, is there a more canonical form for checking the return values of
SWMgr.getModule() - my C++ is a bit rusty but might it not be cleaner to
use a pointer variable rather than a reference?

Cheers,
Lyndon
