Troy,
Thanks for getting back on this so quickly.
In addition to the wiki advice...
Looking at the OSIS manual (pp. 103-105) it seems that variants are a
type of note ("x-variant") or reading (rdg type="x-variant").
The ThML markup (using divs) would seem to work as well if the attribute
were type="x-variant".
To my thinking, the mark-up should be able to
1. contain w elements with their own lemma and morphology information
(so that each reading can be tagged fully) and
2. be grouped with primary, secondary, tertiary, etc., readings for a
single word or phrase
Let me know what you come up with. Thanks again for responding to this.

Daniel,
Thanks for pushing this. I've looked at the OSISVariants filter and it
does indeed look (as stated in the Jira report by you and Chris) that it
has never been used for anything useful. I'll try to nail down the
exact syntax for OSIS variant readings in general (not simply qere, as
we will have phrases and such in the NT) and update the filter to work
with this syntax. I'm not sure what authoritative source was used for
whoever posted the wiki example-- it may be exactly correct, but I would
like to see something in the schema, user manual, or osis-core post
confirming the syntax before we settle on one to support for our
filter. Should be quick to code once the syntax is nailed down.

Sorry to answer my own post, but I see that OSISVariants is a global
option filter. I have added that to the wiki. Now to figure out how to
mark it up in OSIS...

I see that SWORD supports ThML variants very well, but I am trying to
create a module with variants in OSIS. Consulting the wiki, I see
that I should mark these up as follows:
<seg type="x-variant" subType="x-1"><w
lemma="strong:H0318">הוצא</w></seg>
<seg type="x-variant" subType="x-2"><w
lemma="strong:H3318">הַיְצֵ֣א</w></seg>
However, since there is no conf option for this, both variants show
up in the text (Xiphos and BibleTime). This is the way the current
WLC module displays the Ketiv/Qere readings, but I would like to
produce a module that allows you to toggle between Ketiv/Qere
readings. Is this a part of the engine that hasn't made it to the
front-ends, or am I missing a conf file option (or just out to lunch)?
