Further releases
Plans for the next Xiphos release revolve around final feature parity between Linux and Windows (especially the better display engine, providing many features such as blocked Strong's and morphology display) and full integration of Sword's new alternate versification capability with how Xiphos manages book/chapter/verse information.
Please feel free to join our mailing lists and take part in defining the future direction of Xiphos development.
