Well!

I've been having a field day picking through the code!

Question, though.... as Mr. Poon has included dictionaries and =
commentaries
in his releases, would anyone know of a template for the development of
such?

Asaisoft's releases include the Scofield references, which are great, =
but my
personal goal is for the 1917 Thompson Chain References, which, to my
knowledge, don't seem to be available for *ANY* of the free PalmOS Bible
software.  The References, of course, are Public-Domain, and I see them =
in
Sword for Windows.  Maybe I've just been out of the development world =
for
too long.... I can't seem to figure out how to convert those using any =
of
the tools.... Diaspora, Diatheke, etc., don't seem to give me the =
ability to
convert any files but Bible text.

Then again, maybe this old brain's just got too many cobwebs.... <smile>

Regards & God Bless,

Paul
