a question about the gui

Hi, I use BPBible and I would like to reuse the book/chapter selection widget. Where can I find it in the source.

Access "0:0" verses (some commentaries hold info there)

Hi folks,

Is there any way to access the "0:0" verse? I'm using Matthew Henry's Complete commentaries and they not only hold info about verses, but about books as well. If using the main Sword Project application, these can be accesses by going to "0:0" (like Matthew 0:0 has no Bible text, but it has Commentary text about the Book itself). Is there similar functionality in BPBible?

Thanks!

Branding BPBible with our Mozambique Bible project info

Hey guys,

We're about ready to create our MozamBible based on BPBible. It will have several Mozambican languages plus two in English and two in Portuguese.

I'm wondering about "branding." We'd like it to have the "MoçamBíblia" name on the splash screen and at the top of the application window. What are your thoughts on that. I considered just adding an extra rectangle to the bottom of the splash screen image with our name.

Once we have it working I'm hoping to give away about 500 copies in Mozambican Bible colleges so if you have a rich uncle let me know.

Great tool for my flash drive!

Hey, just want to say, after reading some lackluster comments from at least one other poster, that I think this Bible was a great find. I am a student and have two jobs, so my flash drive and I (?!) use about 6 different computers in the course of a week. I have been struggling with how to keep up with my Bible study and have the tools available that I need everywhere that I go, and your software is the perfect fit for what I'm looking for!

Just want to say thanks for your work. Hope that you will keep on keeping on!

What a blessing!

I just want to let you know how thrilled I am about BPB and its application here in Mozambique. Most of the pastors and students I know will never have Internet access and might never step inside a bookstore but I can see this as a great way to share Bibles and resources. Flash drives are very common here and having the PortableApps BPBible on it is going to be a great blessing. I'm concerned about the situation of Portuguese Bibles but I know right now we can start creating modules for Mozambican languages.

Can i suggest some ideas to implement in your software?
- I have seen many software out there with autoupdate possibility. And its really cool, to just click one button to update the software. Can you implement such a thing, please?

- By the way, is there anything like a roadmap for BPBible?

- I'm so sorry for my stupidness, but i cannot find on the entire website, even in FAQ section what BPBible stands for? What "BP" is?
And let me assure you, that it is extremely hard to remember such a name. Are you planing to keep this name?

Bible version creation tool?

I realize that BPBible is for Bible study, but as i can see now there's no bible creation tool on the market, so what do you think about idea to make BPBible a Bible creation tool at some point?
Or the format you use in your software read-only, and you have no idea how to replase strings?

Sword format files?

Hello.
In FAQ section you said "Can I use my e-Sword modules in BPBible?
This has been considered. However, legal considerations make it unlikely that we will be able to use e-Sword books in BPBible."

Can you explain more about it, please?
