- I removed the SingleInstance directive and force my own Instance through code. This does not prevent the script to have more than one instance running, it only ensures one instance if the script starts itself.
- ClipWait breaks Win + B on the third time I restart Logos, so I removed all code for ClipWait. I placed it on line 56.
- The script now completely restarts itself (on Win +
when Logos is not running to ensure that all variables are released and reloaded. This cause the script to start Logos automatically if not running and Win + B is pressed. - If the script is running and Logos get closed, there is a time-frame in which the script thinks that Logos is still open. This will be visible when Win + B fails to replace a reference in this time-frame. Just wait a few seconds and try Win + B again - the script will then start Logos and replace the reference and function normally.

I tried the CopyBibleVerses and it worked, but not reliably and consistently for me. I often had to restart the script and when I changed styles in the Logos "Copy Bible Verses" window it would sometimes work and sometimes not. Further, I was using AutoHotKeys only for this.
I am now using the Smart Tags feature - which I am surprised has been around a long time as an undocumented feature for Office. I have commented on this here: https://community.logos.com/forums/t/5374.aspx?PageIndex=2 Note that this only works for Office, whereas CopyBibleVerses works for any app.
