Now that i've found an OSIS version of the RSV, i'm thinking about constructing a Thoroughly Hyperlinked New Testament. When people say "hyperlinked", they usually mean from one point to another. But with some word indexing, every word can link to a list of verses, each word of which is in turn hyperlinked to others, each word of which ... you get the idea.

I've seen this technique elsewhere before, and also found a link to the Hyper Dictionary. Not sure how useful it is: i'm more interested in the challenge and what i might learn from it. My intention is to generate a static HTML tree: i don't have much in the way of server-side executable capabilities, and the NT as text should be small enough they're not required.
