[sword-devel] Not user-friendly behavior in commentaries (should be continuous)

[yvand]

Hey,

Thanks Troy for your help. I use annotateRef and not osisID, as 
mentioned in https://wiki.crosswire.org/OSIS_Commentaries . I tried 
diatheke, here is what I got :

> diatheke -b FreCJE -k Gen.1 | head
> Genesis 1:1: <div annotateRef="Gen.1.1-Gen.1.19" 
> annotateType="commentary" sID="gen1" type="section"/> <div sID="gen2" 
> type="x-p"/><hi type="bold">La création de l'univers</hi><div 
> eID="gen2" type="x-p"/> <div sID="gen3" type="x-p"/>Avant que rien 
> n'existe de tout………….<div eID="gen4" type="x-p"/> <div 
> annotateRef="Gen.1.1-Gen.1.19" annotateType="commentary" eID="gen1" 
> type="section"/>
> Genesis 1:2:
> Genesis 1:3:
> Genesis 1:4:
> Genesis 1:5:
> Genesis 1:6:
> Genesis 1:7:
> Genesis 1:8:
> Genesis 1:9:
> Genesis 1:10:
I don't know if this is normal: Gen.1.2 is empty, does it mean no link 
entry?

Best regards,
