[sword-devel] What happens to verses that fall outside the specified v11n?

imp2vs is meant for reconstructing a module made from mod2imp. It is a rather trivial program. It is responsibility of the user of imp2vs to handle all proper encoding of the imp file.

For each of the supported encodings, there is a program that bears the responsibility for handling extra verses.

> There are a variety of v11n schemes which can be specified when you import a module. Based on your selection, the tool will append extra verses to the previous canonical verse that has already been assigned content. Extra verses in a canonical chapter will be assigned to the last canonical verse that has been assigned content. Extra chapters in a canonical book will be assigned to the last canonical verse of the previous chapter that has been assigned content. Non-canonical books will be ignored or cause an error. The content for extra chapters and/or extra verses is appended as text only, without references.
