[sword-devel] leningrad, av11n, xiphos

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Thanks for the report Matthew.  The primary practice we used to 
encourage with using the engine was code like:

VerseKey commonVerseKey;
commonVerseKey.Persist(true);
module1.setKey(commonVerseKey);
module2.setKey(commonVerseKey);
module3.setKey(commonVerseKey);
module4.setKey(commonVerseKey);


commonVerseKey = "jn.3.16";

This would position all modules to the entry for John 3:16.


Now in the world of av11n, modules can have keys that contain different 
books, different maxChapters per book, different maxVerses per chapter, 
different orders of book-- basically, in the same way as currently 
focusing any individual GenBook causes us to repopulate the navigation 
controls, so now focusing any Bible should cause the same activity. 
Does this make sense?

	-Troy.
