Enhance Reading Plan syntax; add ability to force a break
I am trying to enter a specific Chronological reading plan for the NT, but am finding myself fighting the "smarts" built into the reading plan software. Can a new character be introduced that will let me tell Logos 5 how to divide up the reading increments? For example, how about a colon:
luke 1:1-56, luke 1:57-80: matt 1:18-25, luke 2:1-20, matt 1:1-17, luke 3:23-38, luke 22:21-40: matt 2:1-23, luke 2:41-52, mark 1:1-8, matt 3:1-12, luke 3:1-20, john 1:1-18: John 1:19-28, mark 1:9-11, matt 3:13-17, luke 3:21-22, john 1:29-34, mark 1:12-13, matt 1:1-11, luke 4:1-13, john 1:35-51, mark 1:16-20, matt 4:18-22, luke 5:1-11: john 2:1-4:26
I am also starting a Chronological reading plan of the Gospels in NIV84 over a year period, reading that once a week & linked that to Faithlife for our church...the plan has some issues that I can't fix without greater control of how material breaks & needed to skip some weeks along the way, but can't build a single reading plan to act like that. I had to build It as monthly plans in order to make it work. To force breaks I inserted John l:l.

Ward, a colon won't work, because they are used in bible verse delineation. But another character (how about the pipe symbol?) would work.
