[sword-devel] NET bible

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Barry,
	sword should be able to parse them all.  Our verse parser handles 
pretty crazy stuff.  You can use tests/parsekey or utilities/vs2osisref

We have a simple web form to vs2osisref up at:

http://crosswire.org/study/examples/parsevs.jsp

Hope this helps,
	-Troy.
