[sword-devel] Sword Modules, Fonts & Options

I have several questions:

1.  Are Code2000 and Arial Unicode MS interchangeable or are there benefits of
one over the other?  I prefer not to have too many complex fonts loaded into my
Windoze 95 system.  It just muddies the water and makes thinks less efficient. 
I also prefer to have the "Font=" line in the .conf files because I don't want
every module to be set to a UTF-8 compatible format.  It makes the modules load
much slower.  OTOH, I am ecstatic with the changes to "BibleCS".  It loads so
much faster.

2.  Can the flags set under the options menu be saved?  (i.e. footnotes on,
morph tags, etc.)

3.  What is the significance of the modules having the character "|" after
references.  This makes the modules look messy.

4.  JFB module shows has some errors in the coding of Gal 1:1-2 See the
following: {\rtf1\ansi{\fonttbl{\f0\fdecor\fprq2
