[sword-devel] Remarks before [ModuleName] ?

[DM Smith]

I’m pretty sure earlier versions of JSword expect [name] to be the first line in the file and have no leading or trailing whitespace or other stuff. BOM will definitely goof it up. 

I’ve rewritten it to be compliant w this ini standard. But not all frontend have been updated or d/l by end users.
