If SWModule::setSkipConsecutiveLinks(true) then SWModule::increment()
(and operator ++) will skip to the next verse which is not a link to the
current verse.
Typically usage is that a chapter will simply do a for (;;) loop through
the verses in the chapter and it all just works.
There is also a method which was added, I think by Ben Morgan a while
back: SWModule::isLinked, though I'm not sure why it was needed and I've
never had a need in any frontend I've written to use it.
Tech details about links:
There is often no way to really tell if a verse is a link. Some module
drivers implement this the same as filesystem inodes, which basically
resemble hard links (not symbolic links)-- basically, just reusing the
same data pointer in the index. But since links are almost exclusively
consecutive, a practical check can be performed to see if the current
entry is the same as the next entry.

Hi.
Not entirely sure I’m understanding correctly.
In Eloquent I’m maintaining a map/dictionary per ’show verses’ request where
basically only the reference is stored in some normalized way.
So I can check on that dictionary and see whether a certain verse was already
added to the output buffer.

How do front-ends know not to double/triple/quadruple...a verse range? Diatheke
fails at that right now and I would like to fix this.
