[sword-devel] Palm Bible Converter

[Nic Carter]

yes, I shall throw my hand up at this stage.  I'm half wondering atm 
whether it is worth redoing Bible Reader, starting from scratch, or 
doing stuff like Stephen Denne is doing with DataCute...  I think I 
need to figure out what is desired with putting effort into this...  I 
think it currently involves making the UI a bit nicer, having support 
for a concordance (well, better support for it), and it having i18n 
stuff...  I'm listening to what other ppl are doing, but not making 
much progress myself atm...  :(

I'm also wondering about the validity of 'porting' sword to palm OS?  
Not sure about it, but I could ramble on about my thoughts on this 
matter and 'plague' you all with it, but Chris might just say it's 
nonsense again...  ;)  :)

a very interested
	nic...  :)

"I can't believe that!" said Alice.
"Can't you?" the Queen said in pitying tone.  "Try again: draw a long
breath, and shut your eyes."
Alice laughed.  "There's no use trying," she said.  "One can't believe
impossible things."
"I daresay you haven't had much practice," said the Queen.
