Yes, the need is pretty glaring. Is the support there? If
someone (i.e. myself?) were to begin work, would help be
forthcoming? Presumably Bibletime would be possible in Windows
with the recent release of free Qt for Windows, but would a native UI
achievable with wx be desireable?<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 6/16/05, <b class="gmail_sendername">DM Smith</b> <<a href="mailto:dmsmith555@yahoo.com">dmsmith555@yahoo.com</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

Would there be any interest amongst the Sword developer's community to
develop a new front end for Sword that would be based off of HTML
display rather than the current one with its RTF-base? I realize
that there already is BibleStudy to supplement BibleCS, but the current
1.0 release of BibleStudy is a bit dated. When I did a check-out
from CVS for it, it would not compile against the newest versions of
the Sword library. What I am thinking of would be a complete
rewrite, hopefully using the wxWidgets, as BibleStudy aimed for.
I have been experimenting recently with wxMozilla, which is a wrapper
for Gecko within wxWidgets which makes the Gecko engine surprisingly
simple to use. I would like to start development on a new client
some time in the next few weeks and have a first pass at it out by the
end of August, hopefully.<br>
<br>
Is there other support for this within the community? I noticed
in the ancient archives of the Sword developers, someone had proposed
this idea, but it seems to have died off fairly rapidly. Let me
hear some feedback!<br>
