[bt-devel] Beginnings of a DCOP interface to BibleTime

That shouldn't be too difficult.
The widget called CMDIArea contains all windows. Each window is of the type 
CDisplayWindow and provides methods to get the list of modules 
(CDisplayWindow::modules()) and to show the text for a key 
(CDisplayWindow::lookup(QString)).

So basically you have to this:
 - Get the pointer to the CMDIArea (it's already in BibleTime::m_mdi)
 - Get a list of all windows (CMDIArea::usableWindowList)
 - Iterate through that list and cast each QWidget to a CDisplayWindow
 - Get for each module the module list and check whether the first module's 
type is a Bible or Commentary (those are the verse based modules). It's 
enough to check only the first module in each window's module list
 - If the type is ok call CDisplayWindow::lookup (QString&) on the current 
window

That should be all you need to do.

Let us know if you need more help,
