References for aligned non-Pali texts

I saw today that there were Taisho references for aligned Chinese translations but I don’t think there is a way to view them on SC currently. I also saw there were references made for the Patna Dharmapada but they weren’t viewable on SC either.

Maybe the Dharmapada ones would be harder to implement since it seemed like e.g.:
"pdhp1:1": "cone1, pdhp1",
might not work because https://suttacentral.net/pdhp1 doesn’t work, only pdhp1-13 does.

But it would be great if the Taisho references could be viewed on SC.

Well this is a different thing from “alignment” which is the segmentation of the text. This is what’s called a “range sutta” — these verses are grouped together.

I know extremely little about this. I just mentioned that since other ranges like Dhp 1-20 works when you just want to see e.g. Dhp 1, and AN 1.1-10 works when you just want to see e.g. AN 1.5. So I thought since that wasn’t possible in PDhp it could maybe affect the references, but I have no clue.
