[sword-devel] WHNU variants

[Will Thimbleby]

Great, thanks. I'm using a modified BibleTime filter at the moment.  
I'm not sure I understand which filters do what. This is what I got  
from diatheke -- is this right?


     if (optionfilters & OP_VARIANTS && variants) {
             if (variants == -1)
                 manager.setGlobalOption("Variants", "All Readings");
             else if (variants == 1)
                 manager.setGlobalOption("Variants", "Secondary  
Readings");
     }
     else
         manager.setGlobalOption("Transliteration", "Primary Readings");



What would also be very handy is if you could point me at a verse  
that has variants in WHNU and, even better, what I should be showing  
for that verse.

thanks for the info -Will
