Sorry again.
But here are the updates with a functional dictionary search.
I saw the links in the other mail were broken, here again:

Time for bed now...
Good night

Sorry folks.
I was a bit to fast.
Unfortunately the search in lexicons doesn't work.
I will have a look at this first but nevertheless someone could test
the bible book search.
Best regards,
Manfred

Manfred,
Yes, that would make him dance. :)

Troy,
sorry I didn't get the time on the evening that I said.
But I defenitely will have a look this week.
Just that I understood right.
What he wants to do is some kind of incremental search means that
the
textfield fires notifications (or Events) whenever a character is
typed
and the search is updated right away, right?
Best regards,
Manfred

Manfred,
This is great news if you might have something available
soon. I
have
no experience with MacSword, or programming for the Mac. You
would be
Dr. Winter's hero if you had a standalone app (macsword) working
well
with Hesychius for his presentation. Don't stress too much, as
he can
always require there to be internet access available and use the
web
tool, but I'm sure it would remove much stress from him if he had
something working which didn't require it. Thanks for your
efforts.
I'm sorry you've not had success getting your additions to macsword
released.
-Troy.

Hi Troy.
I don't know if I understood right.
Generally I have the current sources of MacSword and actually I
helped developing it for quite some time but unfortunately these
updates (Universal Binary) never have been released.
Anyway, changing the search mechanism to work the way you
described
should be doable (once the index has been build).
I can have a closer look at this in the evening (that's in about 9
hours :)
Best regards,
Manfred

DM, that's a nice screenshot. I think Dr. Winter is mostly
interested
in quick/easy searching in either the body or the key of the
lexicon. I
can rebuild the lexicon as an SWLD4 module, it macsword handles
that
better for searching. In BibleCS, we have an incremental
search-- as
the user types it focuses the closes match in the center of
about 10
entries of context. That would be great for him for key lookups,
but he
still wants to search entries, as well. (and actually,
sometimes the
keys have multiple words, and his target word might not be first,
so the
incremental search won't pull it up.
All this to say, with all the great indexing everyone is doing
on our
data-- whether with sword or else with their own index build-- it
should
be possible to do full body search results as an incremental
search--
while the user types, it fills out the results box. Google
"suggest"
does this on the entire internet :) We should be able to do it
on a
much smaller domain of data.
But regardless, I'm not a mac programmer, and have no idea how to
update
(or even compile; nor do I have access to a mac!) to do any of
this
for
Bruce. So, if we can't get even a simple tool for him by
Friday, I'll
probably just say he needs to be sure to have internet access
for his
presentation.
Any thoughts?
-Troy.

Macintosh Lexicon Support-- The Hesychius lexicon has been

use this

standalone on his Mac. I have no idea how well GBS is
supported on
the
Mac, or how easy the interface is for him to use. Anyone who

with this would really take some pressure off of me!
MacSword supports GenBook quite well, but it might not be
obvious how
it works.
Here is an image of how it looks:
http://www.crosswire.org/~dmsmith/MacSwordGenBook.png
Note that there is a "tray" on the right of the window.
This is activated by the icon in the upper right of the window.
The tray is initially closed when the window comes up.
The up and down arrows merely go from one keyed entry to the
next.
