<br>To: <a href="mailto:joseph.walker@gmail.com">joseph.walker@gmail.com</a><br><br></span>Mr. Walker--<br><br>Just
downloaded JSword. Am looking for a comparable Bible
software I can run from a CD on my work computer w/o install.<br><br>My questions are these:<br><br>Why
no pulldown book and verse list on the left as in the Personal
Commentary view? Was that a preference of the developers, or
are you still working on it?<br><br>Plus, to mouse your way to a
passage, it's 6 clicks. Others, e.g. e-Sword, it's one
double. I suppose I could get used to it. Doing
it that way, you have a lot of control over the display.<br><br>But--and
I don't know what all Java can do--would it work to have books and
chapters expand on mouseover, like my WinMe Start|My Computer, or the
Menu bar on Explorer/Office/etc? That would be cool.<br><br>Also,
I haven't tried, but it looks like you can't open books, like Bro.
Lawrence e.g., in JSword. Again, was this a preference or is
it a coming feature?<br><br>Still can't open binary
offline. Tried the regular 0.9.9 download this
morning. I'd think it was something wrong with my Java, but
it opens fine with WebStart. Plus I have Java 1.4 (your
link) and 1.5 (earlier download) enabled.<br><br>View Source sure takes
a long time. I got tired of waiting for the split window to
fill after a couple three minutes (KJV/S#).<br><br>I'd appreciate your
response to these curious questions; probably I will use
JSword as is and enjoy the unique tools it provides. Your
service is greatly appreciated; may it bless lots of people.<br><br>Thanks,<br><br>I'll let you get back to work.<br><br>Coby<br><br><br>--<br>_______________________________________________<br>Get your free email from <a href="http://e-mail.peru.com">
