Dear Manfred,
What a Christmas gift! Having the headings back in my modules is
wonderful. It has been a while since I have seen those. I think the
last version that I had the headings working in was back around 1.2
or so. And the ability to specify a font for a specific module is
fantastic. My problem has always been with the Greek and Hebrew
modules. It is hard to find a good unicode font with letter styles
that are nice in Latin, Greek and Hebrew. That is solved now that I
can specify which font I want to use for each document.
Yeah. There is still lots of things to do for better text display
customisation.
The idea of including rtf notes was a surprise, but it is a great
idea. I like to write my sermons in RTF, so I can have access to my
sermons directly in MacSword without having to make modules out of
them. In fooling around with it this morning, I couldn't exactly
figure out how to change the name of the file (New Note) unless I
went to the Finder and changed it there. The same was true of the
folder.
Renaming works with left-click when the item is already selected. I
think this is the same as in Finder but Finder additionally accepts
CR to rename.
Then I got an idea. I put aliases of my sermon folders into the
MacSword Notes folder, but MacSword couldn't handle the alias. If
that were possible, it would be a great way to have access to
personal files without having to actually move them to an
inconvenient place like the MacSword application sopport folder.
Aliases are not supported right now.
Need to check whether this is a big issue but I think not.
If that were possible, this new feature would be huge!!!
I have one other question that ocurred to me this morning as I was
enjoying all of the good thought and hard work that you and others
have put into MacSword. Is there a good way to search for Strongs
codes in a module? There used to be a search like "strongs:052",
but I don't know if that is still valid. I looked at the Wiki, but
it didn't mention anything about it.
Yeah, right, I'll add this to the wiki.
You'll have to enter the Strong's number prefixed by "h" or "g".
For example to search for the Strong's number "07225" for
"beginning" in Gen 1:1 you'll search for "h07225".
Sounds good!
Regards,
Manfred
Once again, thank you for the exciting features and Merry Christmas.

P.S. I've mentioned it before, but I did the Spanish localization
of some earlier versions of MacSword and am willing to work on the
localization of 2.1. But I need a list of the strings. Estoy a tu
disposición.
I understand what you are saying about localization. But if you get to
a point where you are ready to do it (2.2) just let me know!
Take care!
David

Hi.
I just released a release candidate of the upcoming 2.1 version
with the following changes:
- Notes system. Left sidebar has a new category "Notes". Notes
basically are RTF text files manageable in MacSword. They can be
created, moved and deleted from MacSword and are integrated into
MacSword as tabs or windows. Bible references can be added to
note's text which will show the reference target as tooltip or in
the preview window. This should give a bit of word processing
capability without the need of another software like TextEdit.
- A different font can be chosen for every module.
- Left sidebar is more iTunes like with new drawer icons.
- Headings (pre-verse and book/chapter introductions) are now
displayed when enabled.
- The latest version of the SWORD engine (with Luther and German
versification) including developer utilities.
- Two main menu items have been added that create/remove symlinks
to the SWORD module utilities in /usr/local/bin folder.
- Many code cleanups, refactorings and general fixes.

I'll also be away until 4th January.
See you then.
Merry Christmas and God bless,
Manfred
