Is there a faster way to navigate to passages? I once used a Bible program which allowed you to simply type your reference in a box (navigate to it easily by pressing alt+g). One could quickly get to their desired passage by pressing alt+g and typing the passage + enter. Is there any such feature in e-Sword?

 

Also, is there a way to copy a list of verses? Maybe a dialog where one could enter a list like "john 3:16; genesis 1:1; Titus 3:5" and have it copy all of these to the clipboard?

 

Thanks!

 

Rick

Ctrl+L will put the cursor in the "Lookup Scripture Reference" box.

 

The User Guide that comes with e-Sword describes how to copy a list of verses. See Chapter 5 THE VERSE LIST FEATURE – SAVING VERSES. Section "Creating a Verse List and Adding Verses"

Once the data is in the verse list, you simply click the "Copy search results" icon in the Verse List window.

Ctrl+L for Lookup Scripture Reference is excellent.

 

The verse list feature is not very conducive for quickly copying a series of passages however. In sermon prep, I sometimes need three or four verses from various passages pasted into my notes. A dialog box which allows the quick entering of a series of references would be ideal.
