What BPBible does support is automatically detecting Greek and Hebrew text and marking it to be used with the configured Greek/Hebrew fonts. Just for the record, BPBible does subclass the regular filters quite substantially. It uses it for things like: poetic text display strongs headwords instead of numbers (if option is on) quote colouring by speaker in ESV (if option is on) cross-reference expansion (if option is on) as well as some HTML+class code so CSS can be applied Probably some of the new XHTML filter will overlap with what BPBible is doing with some of the basic html + classes it is writing out. God bless, Ben.
