0.4.4

BPBible Release 0.4.4.

Paragraph alignment for Chinese Text

Hi,
I am currently using BPBible 0.4.4. When displaying the Chinese text in paragraph format, the text did not wrapped around correctly. Many lines have the subscript line number as the final character of a verse with many blank spaces following. The first character of the verse will display on a new line.

Here is a sample from Psalm 1 as appeared on my screen:

1 ???????????????????????????????? 2
??????????????????????????? 3
????????????????????????????????????? 4
???????????????????? 5
????????????????????????????????? 6
???????????????????????

Hotkeys or Shortcuts

Has there been any talk or thoughts on adding hotkeys to the program? For example adding 'ctrl + s' to open up the Strongs. Or even adding a right-click option with the mouse for some of the Tools like the Strongs?

It would make it so much easier than having to use the mouse to go up to the Tools, click on it and then go down to the Strongs line and click on it. (I am just using the Strongs option as an example.) :)

Just a thought.

Finding unicode Greek fonts that work

One way to improve this already excellent software is to add a wiki item on finding and installing fonts that display Greek properly, particularly accented characters. After considerable searching and surfing the web, I discovered that the fonts I lacked were already present on my computer, yet not in the correct place. The fix was simple.

The following worked for me (using BPBible 0.4.4 on Windows XP) and may well work for others.

Small foot print

i have just downloaded the usb version to my 32 gb sd card in my dell mini-9 that only has 8 gb hd. i have an icon pointing to it & have several bible books, commentaries, devotionals. i love this program! i do wish you could interface it with the u3 open office portable apps word processor or even the windows version. it is a challenge for me to keep my hd lien with only 8 gb.
this is great program. have you considered incorporating the miriad of http://www.olivetree.com/ material. why reinvent the wheel if it will work?

BPBible 0.4.4 released

BPBible 0.4.4 has been released. Please upgrade and try the new version as soon as possible, since it contains substantial improvements over 0.4 and 0.3.x and fixes nasty problems with 0.4.3. I hope no-one is still using 0.1 or 0.2, but if you are then you really should upgrade as well, since probably more has changed than stayed the same.

BPBible 0.4.4 released

BPBible 0.4.4 has been released. This release is largely a bug-fix release, but also adds a number of usability improvements. BPBible 0.4.3 contained several important regressions from BPBible 0.4, so the BPBible developers strongly recommend that anyone using BPBible 0.4.3 upgrade to 0.4.4 as soon as possible.
