Could take a while to do a full analysis on all the Greek modules with accents.
The situation is further complicated by the fact that at least one Greek NT module was made without automatically normalising the UTF-8 text to NFC, so there are still a smattering of these separate diacritics next to certain Greek letters: U+0313 ̓ 1,220 COMBINING COMMA ABOVE U+1FBD ᾽ 1 GREEK KORONIS This was a surprise to me! It's the way module SBLGNT was made - presumably using osis2mod with its -N option. SwordVersionDate=2013-07-18 (which was while Osk was still active in CrossWire) The sole instance of the standalone KORONIS U+1FBD occurs in this verse. Matthew 10:33: ὅστις ⸂δ᾽ ἂν⸃ ἀρνήσηταί με ἔμπροσθεν τῶν ἀνθρώπων, ἀρνήσομαι ⸂κἀγὼ αὐτὸν⸃ ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ πατρός μου τοῦ ⸀ἐν οὐρανοῖς. It's just after the first small letter delta. Whether this is correct rather than being δ̓ (small delta with U+0343 COMBINING GREEK KORONIS) is beyond my current knowledge. I will ask Dr David I-B about this instance. btw. This KORONIS does get removed by the filter as one should expect. Its inclusion here is merely because its presence was a suprise to me. However, using the UTF8GreekAccents filter on module SBLGNT converts all those U+0313 ̓ 1,220 COMBINING COMMA ABOVE to U+02BC ʼ 1,220 MODIFIER LETTER APOSTROPHE which is another peculiarity that I was certainly not expecting. Breaking down those 1220 instances, the Greek letters followed by U+0313 are: 00033 δ̓ 00107 θ̓ 00233 τ̓ 00292 π̓ 00213 λ̓ 00132 φ̓ 00061 ῤ 00149 ἰ This exactly matches the corresponding counts with U+02BC for the filtered file. 00033 δʼ 00107 θʼ 00233 τʼ 00292 πʼ 00213 λʼ 00132 φʼ 00061 ρʼ 00149 ιʼ Well there we are, you see. One accent gets changed rather than stripped! We need the combined skills of an engineer and NT Greek scholar to get to the bottom of these things.
