Hi, all!
To present myself briefly first, I'm the brother of Lars, who I suppose
has been a member of the list for quite a long time. We are both blind.
I'm working as a Lutheran pastor in Norway.
With great interest I have followed the discussion on using
Liblouisutdml to produce the Bible in Braille. I am very thankful to
John Boyer for your work on this, and for your solution. I am in touch
with the Norwegian library for audio and Braille, and I hope they will
produce the Bible.
There's a lot in the coding that I do not understand, and that does not
bother me at all. But one line makes me wonder:
John J. Boyer wrote:

Why five? In the left margin we need two cells for verse numbers 1-99.
As far as I know, only Psalm 119 has more than 100 verses, and I assume
this passage can be treated separately.
The third cell should be let blank. Then the left margin could be set to
four?
Best regards
Magne Bjorndal
