Hi there .
I wonder if the webmaster might like to place a notice along these lines
on the developer page of the Sword site? Suggestion:

This very simple GUI frontend for Sword is cross-platform, and very easy

Thanks for pointing that out. I've updated the Wiki page to reflect the
current state & methods.

I signed up yesterday to the mailing list.
I am trying to download the code using SVN. That went ok. It put stuff
in a "src" subdirectory, which was already in a src subdirctory due to
your web page directions.
I tried to download biblecs, and I got a directory named "Trunk", not

Inquiring (newbie) minds want to know:

I'm not so sure whether this is a good idea -- it is very improbable
that a misspelled verse is actually Genesis 1:1. A better solution

It's hard to suggest that there is a better system than what we have

Sorry, I think I got a bit misinterpreted here. :-) I'm all for the
creation of GUI tools -- we need them. Even the commandline gurus
sometimes need them :-).

I don't understand the mindset that refuses to acknowledge the usefulness of

Sometimes the files contain windows characters which are not readble correctly

While your statement is correct, the context is wrong.
Fred is able to use commandline tools, but he is either having
