<font face="FreeSerif">Xiphos has a feature, "commentary
by chapter," so that whole commentary chapters are
displayed along with whole Bible chapters, and then the
verse is tracked visually in the commentary pane, but in
a different manner from the Bible pane (i.e. current
verse always aligned to top, plus a preceding horizontal
rule). It's a UI issue IMO, not an engine issue. If
you explicitly list the verse range covered in your
markup, then I imagine you might get the effect you want
in other UIs.<br>
<br>
Up to this time, Xiphos' commentary by chapter has not
been default, and I wonder if I should make it so in the
future.<br>

<div>I think so. Since Bibles are by chapter, it makes sense
to have commentaries as well, but :<br>

<p>A commentary view in frontends, as Karl mentioned, might be a
good thing.</p>
<p>I still don't understand why the OSIS reference
"Gen.1.1-Gen.1.19" is interpreted as "Gen.1.1" only! Again, why
this behavior? It seems not logical for me. Are commentaries in
OSIS only verse by verse?<br>
</p>
<p>And issues are still there:</p>
<p>- A commentary like "Gen.7.17-Gen.8.5" (in FreCJE = Day by Day,
by J. Koechlin in French) will only be shown at chapter 7, isn't
it? I should also use a "hack" and put an OSIS reference like ""Gen.7.17
Gen.8.1" (not use continuous reference notation).<br>
</p>
<p>- It would be impossible to highlight properly the commentary as
you mentioned (if I understood correctly).<br>
</p>
<p>This is again my 2 cents.<br>
