Hi Ken,

I haven't thought much about reading plans and they haven't even been on my
long term todo list.  JSword contains a single reading plan but the ui would
need coding.  Many bibles allow you to select from a variety of reading
plans and automatically take you the correct pages to read each day.
 Personally, I have never followed a reading plan but maybe I should.

Do many of you use reading plans?

Best regards
Martin
