Sword-devel'ers: There are quasi-internationalized version of the LcdBible software available at:
Spanish RV - NT: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/lcdbible/LcdBibleSetup_sparv.exe French LSG - NT http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/lcdbible/LcdBibleSetup_frelsg.exe German Luthern - NT: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/lcdbible/LcdBibleSetup_gerlut.exe Some notes and caveats: * The Bible book names were borrowed from The SWORD Project for Windows using the options-translation * For now, an end-user could only have one trans at a time on their computer * I just used google-trans for guessing at the equivalent of "Search For" or "Search Phrase". I ignored, for now, the issue of word order. * Once you get the hang of it, it's is nearly trivial to do this quick/dirty internationalization ... an hour or so per trans (in queue: Swahili, GerBen, KLV (Klingon?), Czech, Turkish, Uma, Bulgarian, Greek) * I only wrestled with uncompressed Bible texts * The installation routine words aren't translated. * The titlebar isn't translated * I'm not clear if all these use the same versification, but assumed this was the case * All chars are 8-bit ascii rather than unicode or multi-byte * LcdBible is only for Window with Win98-Second Edition or later, not Linux Feedback appreciated. I'd also like to check if it would be appropriate to request feedback on the sword-support list. Sharing the reason for the season, http://learningcards.eeworks.org/EeCard01.html Lynn A.
