I like a circular history of 255 spots with the ability to move backwards or forwards.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 4:39 PM, Gordon Diamant <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:gordon@gdiamant.com">gordon@gdiamant.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hi Martin,<div><br></div><div>This morning I ran into the problem where I could not scroll to the last verse on my HTC EVO. I think the solution is to calculate the number of lines the last verse uses. Then take the screen height in lines minus the number of line for the last verse which should equal the number of lines to pad the bottom. Or another option would be to just force the last verse to stop scrolling when it reaches the top of the screen and pad enough empty lines to get there.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Another idea is for split screens by holding the tab and swiping down, swipe up to go back to full screen.</div><div><br></div><div>My last idea is the back button would go back to the previous location but a press and hold would end the program.</div>
<div><br></div><div>O and the history should allow me to move not just backwards but also forwards. Sometimes I move backwards to check something and then want to go forward again to where I was.</div><div><br></div><div>
And thank you very much for all your work on this reader. I'll be reading my Bible more again. :)<div><div></div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Feb 1, 2011 at 9:57 AM, Martin Denham <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mjdenham@gmail.com" target="_blank">mjdenham@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

The LuceneAnalyzer used by JSword to do Chinese search requires a lot of memory and consequently did not work on mobile phones so I disabled it but we need to find an alternative Chinese LuceneAnalyzer with lower memory requirements.<br>
<br>This need keeps slipping down my list partly because of the difficulty I would have handling anything Chinese characters and being able to tell if a search was working correctly or not. It would be great if somebody who knows a little Chinese and Java were to pick this up with support from myself and Matthew.<br>
<br><b>Strong's ref Search</b><br>I am planning to add a link to the bottom of Strong's ref pages that would cause a search for all occurrences of that ref in the current bible.<br><br>Best regards<br>Martin<br><br>

<div dir="ltr">Hey Martin,<div><br></div><div>Great work on and-bible! I have been real busy lately, and so rather silent on the list, but have been reading everything.</div><div><br></div><div>I second the highlighting; that would be great.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Also, the idea of being able to insert personal notes connected to a verse is great, or at least to a chapter. I mentioned this before, but at the time you acted like that might be a long way off. The iOS Mantis Bible app does this really well, and I would like to be able to do something like this in And-Bible, so as not to switch between apps... :) </div>
<div><br></div><div>The new grid is a definite improvement. Thanks.</div><div><br></div><div>As to Chinese search, I joined the jsword-devel list as was recommended, hoping to catch some chatter on there about Chinese language issues, but it seems to have instantly died down. I am wondering what was learned at that time. I am still a little curious why Chinese search cannot be done entirely on single characters, using "AND"s and what-nots to tie a more complicated search together... I don't think there is any real reason to attempt to search via pinyin phrase, which of course would be much more complicated (at least according to my understanding, which may be goofed) to implement. I don't think anyone who uses Chinese seriously would really need to search the Chinese text via pinyin.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Also, it would be great to be able to search text according to Strong's ref numbers, to compare translation and context of the underlying Greek/Hebrew text. I do this all the time in Bibletime/Xiphos. I saw someone else mentioned this functionality.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks again for the hard work you've put into this. It is really shaping up to be a nice program, and works well.</div><div><br></div><font color="#888888"><div>Matthew Patenaude</div></font></div>
