[sword-devel] Using Multiple Front-ends

Hmm.  Thanks.

I am using Bibletime-mini, since that is what I had installed on a
previous Nokia Symbian device.

On linux I have Bibletime and Xiphos, and I'm sure they both have
separate local repositories.  I will have to check again when I get
home.

 As reported earlier, Bishop and And Bible use the same module
location on the one device. If you install on one it will be available
on the other. I don’t know if a restart is needed by the other app.
 On Un*x, they are all stored at ~/.sword by default.

What prompted it this time is that I just installed Bishop on Android,
and was immediately prompted to download some texts to get started.

I will try SWORD_PATH on my computers later (thank you), but for now
it is Android I am particularly thinking of.

By default, all the desktop apps I know about should use the same
paths. On phones, this probably depends greatly on which OS you're in
I don't think it's possible with iOS, but it might be possible with
Android. That would depend on the app, though.

 When installing multiple front-ends on a phone or computer, how do I
configure them all to use the same texts?  At the moment they all
want me to download a separate copy for each of them.  So, for
example, if I have 3 front-end applications and want KJV in each of
them I have to download it 3 times and store 3 copies.

 I assume there has to be a (simple) way to do this.
