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>
