[jsword-devel] [sword-devel] How to compile And Bible from jsword from the upstream repo?

It is probably easiest to start by ignoring JSword and checking out the And
Bible project from github.  It should be self-contained because, although
bad practice, I drop all the jars into the libs folder.

There is a wiki page on building And Bible
here<http://code.google.com/p/and-bible/wiki/CompilingAndBibleSourceCode>,
but I only use the first Eclipse method, so that will be the most reliable.

I have a Development branch and a Master branch in Github.  Currently there
are some TTS control changes being worked on in the Development branch.

The Nexus 7 is great because it is one of the few running the latest OS.
 Unfortunately you may hit a couple of bugs because I don't have a
JellyBean device.  There were reports that the long-press verse menu was
not working, I tried to do a fix which I thought only partially worked on
the emulator, but the complaints stopped, so maybe it worked well enough -
it would be nice to know.
