If you can "right-click" Books and Dictionries to "Send Book Entry to Editor". Can you do the same inside of the ESI to send editor?
When the ESI window pops up from inside the ESI menu is limited but nothing for URL, Link, Send To, etc.
Can you get a link, URL copy, "Send Book Entry to Editor" command by code or otherwise from within the ESI?
Tried help, cannot find how to do this. Hopefully it can be done.

No, as you have noted, there is no right-click shortcut to do that.

There is a URL protocol for ESI searches, though, described here:


The very last one. So, you can make the links, you just have to do it manually.

The reason there is no right-click option for this is that the ESI supports more settings than the URL protocol does, such as English Stemming on/off, so there is no way to make a link that is guaranteed to produce the exact same output that you see when you make it.

I will add this to the feature request list.
 
<P>Link to English-Strong's Index: g646 - <A
href="swordsearcher://esi/G646">ἀποστασία apostasía ap-os-tas-ee'-ah</A>
WORKS!
Thanks for that.

Another question, as to where the answer is I looked vigoursly but could not find. When one copy/pastes into book module editor, the remove link has to be done (in order to remove links) from Internet sources I have learned. Very cool feature by the way! What I am seeing is that when in the "commentary" section that feature is not available, meaning that it is "auto" or what. It did not keep the links but was wanting to know is that "built in"?
Curious. The site I used for copy/paste uses Logos NKJV, ug, so was very curious as to why the option was greyed out in Commentary but available in Book Module Editor?
 
I don't understand, sorry. The editor works the same whether you are editing a book or commentary entry.
 
Re-tested and see my error, it does work the same way! For the first time I actually ran across a page that did not have the text as hyper-links.
Also never pasted into the commentary area either. So sorry...
