[sword-devel] Alternate Versifications

[David Haslam]

Given a researcher with ample time to devote to the task, it should be
feasible to construct a French canon.h file that would cover a significant
proportion of the variations in v11n. 

It would require a lot of diligent detailed comparisons for French Bibles. 

IMHO, it would be better to have too few verses defined in any given chapter
than too few.
 - Having too few causes content to be appended to the last defined verse
during module build.
 - Having too many merely leaves something for emptyvss to report should one
be so inclined.

Several French Bibles are available in digital format at
http://456-bible.123-bible.com/

One difficulty facing the researcher is that quite often those who did the
digitization have tended to squeeze the text into an existing v11n, and if
you're lucky, they recorded the original verse numbers in parentheses.
