[jsword-devel] Changing the path where bibles are looked for

[Joe Walker]

import org.crosswire.jsword.book.sword.SwordBookDriver;

String[] path = new String[]
{
     "/usr/share/sword",
};

SwordBookDriver.setSwordPath(path);

If you want a config file way of doing the same thing then I could 
probably help with that too.
