I am not convinced that using a usfm editor is giving anyone an edge in terms of module design. Bibledit is a brilliant program for its purpose - translating the Bible. But if you want to create featureful osis texts then this is not the way to go, unless you have already a featureful usfm text or are willing to spend considerable time on learning usfm

this is the first time to hear about Bibledit, It may help me making Arabic Deutrocanonical Books, I wish if there's a GUI tool that can be used to create bibles, commentaries and genbooks for Osis, even if it started with support for basic elements only, I have an idea for a GUI XML Editor (.net) but still thinking in how to make it more generic to support more osis elements over time
