[sword-devel] Search error in PocketSword for ancient Greek text

[Tom Sullivan]

On my keyboard, the two sigmas, are two different keys. They also have 
different UTF-8 numbers. It seems that this could be a host program 
problem to fix.

Great News!
God created you, owns you and gave you commands to obey.
You have disobeyed God - as your conscience very well attests to you.
God's holiness and justice compel Him to punish you in Hell.
Jesus Christ became Man, was crucified, buried and rose from the dead
as a substitute for all who trust in Him, redeeming them from Hell.
If you repent (turn from your sin) and believe (trust) in Jesus Christ,
you will go to Heaven. Otherwise you will go to Hell.
Warning! Good works are a result, not cause, of saving trust.

>       In the past, when I have tried searching Greek text in PocketSword, it causes an error. I seem to recall, that it went something like this. If I put the full Greek word in, it won't find the word, but if I enter part of the Greek letters of a word in, then it will find the word. It seems to, for some reason, not like the Greek "s" suffix. I think, it may even be possible for me to enter a word and only leave out the last Greek character "s", and it can find the word. But if I add the "s", then it cannot find the word. Quite a lot of Greek words, by the way, end with an "s".
