It is capable of handling multiple files. Typically Paratext has one file for each book of the Bible, so that is why it handles those files that way. I remember running into this problem in Windows, but I don't remember how I solved it. I think I switched my OS. :) I agree this utility should

David, I hadn't thought about publicizing on Facebook. I have so far avoided getting an account, and I probably will continue to do so until my dissertation is finished. But it would make sense to do that since so many people are on Facebook. Daniel On 02/16/2011 10:38 AM, David Haslam wrot

Re: [sword-devel] The problem with dictionaries (by David Ker)

At TExTonline.org we have set up a project for developing a modern replacement for Strongs using WeSay, and therefore LIFT. I haven't developed a script to transform the LIFT file into TEI, but that is on the to-do list when I actually get to working on this seriously. However, I have realized

This has been worth waiting for. Right to left and continuous scrolling is a huge step forward. I also like the options for displaying Strongs numbers. Well done! Daniel On 12/31/2010 07:24 AM, Jonathan Morgan wrote: Hi all, BPBible 0.5 beta 1 has been released. As this is the first preview
