Hello Wayne,

 

There is a good freeware Bible program for the King James version called
"Theophilos."  Here is a link to the program in my drop box.  You can also
visit www.theophilos.com and find the link for downloads.

 

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3951772/theoinst.exe

 

There are a couple settings I changed in my copy of the Theophilos 3 program


that you might want to change also.  Use CTRL+T when in the program to bring


up the settings dialog box.  If focus is not in the "Bible" page tab then 

use tab key to move to where the page tabs are and then use right or left 

arrow keys to find the Bible tab.  Use tab key in the Bible page of the 

dialog box and find the checkbox for "read by line."  If you check the box 

then when you have a block of text to be read JAWS will read it a line at a 

time when you use the up or down arrow keys.  After checking the box use tab


key to move back to the page tabs and use right or left arrow keys to move 

to the multimedia page of the dialog box.  CTRL+tab doesn't always work to 

move between pages.  You can then use tab key to the checkbox for playing a 

sound on startup and if you don't want the sound played then use spacebar to


remove the checkmark.  use tab key to the OK button and press spacebar to 

close the dialog box.

 

The program should start in either the library or Bible page and you can use


the tab key to move to the different lists.  Use tab a couple of times and 

you will here "Bible" in the tree view.  Use tab key to move to the list of 

books of the Bible.  You can use first letter navigation to quickly move to 

a specific book or use up and down arrow keys.  Use tab key to move to the 

chapter list after selecting a book and you can use up or down arrow keys or


the first digit of a number to move more quickly to a specific chapter.  use


tab key again to move to the verse selection and either use up and down 

arrow keys to move to a specific verse or press the first digit of a number 

until you get to the verse you want.  Use enter key to move to the verse. 

Focus will be at the verse you chose.  Use normal reading commands to read 

the text.  Using down arrow will move a line at a time if you made the 

change for reading by line in the settings.  If you want to get a commentary


for a certain word in a verse then route JAWS to PC cursor using JAWS 

key+minus key if using a desktop or JAWS key with left bracket key if using 

a laptop.  After routing JAWS cursor to the word use a double left mouse 

button click.  If using a desktop use the slash on the number pad twice 

quickly.  If using a laptop use JAWS key with the number 8 on the number row


or the keyboard twice quickly.  focus will move into a window with 

commentary.  Turn PC cursor on and use normal navigating and reading in this
window.  use escape 

key to clear the commentary window and return to the text.  F4 can be used 

to move to previous window and F5 to next window in the program.

 

The searching capabilities are also good.  You can search by any or all 

words or you can search by phrases.  CTRL+F brings up the Find dialog box.
Type in the search term and tab to the combo box where you can choose
searching for any word, all words or by phrase.  Use Alt+F to start the
search.  Use up or down arrow keys in the list of results and press enter
key to move to a specific result.
