  <p>If you wish <app>Xiphos</app> to display its interface in a language
  other than the default, you may select one here.  A restart will be
  required, so that the locale can be initialized.</p>

  <p>If you enable <gui>Default Dictionary</gui>, then that named dictionary
  (see <gui>Special</gui> below) module will always be used when
  double-clicking a word anywhere in <app>Xiphos</app>.</p>

  <p>Certain dictionary-style modules are <gui>Daily Devotionals</gui> whose
  keys are numerically in the form "Month.Day".  If you have such a module
  installed and it has been selected as your preferred devotional, then you
  can ask that <app>Xiphos</app> display today's selection during startup.</p>

  <p>If you enable <gui>Resize images</gui>, <app>Xiphos</app> will
  automatically resize image content in commentaries, general books, and
  dictionaries so as to fit the subwindow which contains them.</p>

  <p><gui>Highlight current verse</gui>, if enabled, will cause <app>Xiphos
  </app> to substitute mere current verse colorization with a high-contrast
  alternate color scheme on the current verse.  The colors used may be chosen
  from the color selector pane (see below).</p>

  <p><gui>Highlight user annotations</gui> uses inverted highlight color
  choices when marking user-annotated verses.</p>

  <p>By default, <gui>Cross-references</gui> go into the Previewer.  Selecting
  this checkbox puts them into the verse list instead.</p>

  <p>Verse number display can be offset in several ways provided by the
  checkboxes.</p>
