Jeffrey:
Whenever I cite variant manuscripts it always comes from my manually
typing such from either the UBS or the Nestle's text, that is, from the
books themselves. Until we actually start using the Greek text online in
B-Greek discussions, then it seems hardly worthwhile copying and pasting
from the GNT online.
