In Topic: KJV 2000 for iPad

Well, I'm no expert on this but wanted you to know I am thinking about doing this. Had eye surgery recently so can't do it now, but perhaps soon.

 

Do you have an updated link to this KJV2000 for iOS? The above isn’t working.

 

Have a great day now...

In Topic: Converting PC module to e-Sword X: NET First edition

05 October 2020 - 05:53 AM

Good day to you Stephen!

Thanks for this suggestion brother... I did write to Rick and it took several attemts to get a response, one which seemed to indicate that he is a very busy person. In the end, he told me it will not work because it is a premium module that I am trying to use, though it appears to me that it simply cannot be a premium module. I asked him about this and did not hear back again. Considering it took some prodding the last time - I decided to try to exhaust this pathway before bothering him again on this issue.

 

But, I assure you, if I ever get it to work, I will be only too glad to share the method AND, if I ever hear anything in a positive way about trying to do this, why wouldn't I share that functional module on this website? I would be only too glad to do so. It may take some doing for me to figure our how to create modules for e-Sword X users, but I would be willing to do it if at all possible, respected and appreciated.

 

Please remember, I just purchased e-Sword X a few weeks ago off the Apple store and had only heard of e-Sword for the PC up until  that point; coming from the OnlineBible (first PC (DOS!) then Macintosh versions) ---> Olive Tree pathway. I would like to get down the pathway of eSword X and make it a more common daily workflow kind of option for me, but I am still new to not only the application, but the thought process and "ethos" or "culture" of its users.

 

I am still looking at the module creation process for e-Sword, both PC and e-Sword X. Heck, I'm still learning how to find what I want in the software itself! Hahahaha...

 

Take care and have a great day now! Always glad to hear from you and thank you for your time...

Hi Jason,

If in the end that nothing works out and the problem still persists, suggest you contact Rick Meyers and see what he has to say.

 

In the event he has resolved the issue for you, please share the solution on here.

 

Blessings,

Hello JPG and thank you for this suggestion. I am willing to give plenty of potentialities a whirl!

I would like to try to implement this, but I am completely unaware of the file structure of these files. I might just, for the sake of fun and laughs, try to open one of these files in a text/hex editor and see what I find.

 

I work commonly with CSS, HTML and eBook programming processes as well as relational database programming and once upon a time (decades ago now) created shareware applications for the PC. SO, I suppose I will see if I can figure this out.

 

If there is a good tutorial for this sort of thing on these forums, would you pass that my way?

Thank you again!


Jason

 

Long shot.

Perhaps if you change the abbreviation name in the file to NET1x it will work. I say this because in the e-Sword version abbreviation names have been reserved for official resources in the past, and maybe that is the case here.

Thanks for the attempt TJ, it was a noble suggestion.

 

Sadly, I just tried it and got the same result. I am not sure why the module is posted twice, it seems that the uploads were split by just a few minutes. I did write 2GunTom a PM asking if he had any suggestions but it has been a week or two and no response. He may not frequent here at all any longer.

 

Is there a user out there who has purchased the e-Sword X NET premium module? Can anyone tell me if it comes with both the first edition and the second edition? I suppose that I need to find out more about the developer and perhaps ask them directly.

 

Is there a decent tutorial on how to take a Word doc, HTML, RTF, etc. and convert it into a module? I might try making this happen myself - if it is a reasonable pursuit. If nothing else, it might prove useful in other ways as well - including creating other content for e-Sword I do not see listed here. Any insight on this process folks?

 

Also, still not hearing about whether or not the community here would consider it reasonable, acceptable, etc. for me to upload these  BBLI files that DO appear in my e-Sword X for others to download. Any thoughts on that folks?

Have a great Friday... Thank you all again...

There are two different uploads of the Net free module on this website, you might want to try the other file that is uploaded on this site:

Hahahah...

 

Good day to you there Stephen...   :D

 

Listen brother, I have not been ribbed in a little while for my current MacOS connection. :) I assure you, what you wrote is not foreign to me nor offensive. It did give me a little chuckle, surely. Thanks for that.

 

You know, I worked in the IT industry from the early 90's to 2011. And, during that time, I was a 99% PC kind of guy, working on - literally - 100,000+ computers in that span (and seeing a whole host of changes in hardware, massively sweeping changes). It was a form of psychological terror. Ha... I loved DOS, embraced Windows, supported many versions of it and just got tired of doing it at work, then getting home and doing the same sort of stuff I did all day all over again (BSOD's affected us all from time to time). In 2008, I purchased a MacBook and I have just kind of been in the Apple OS-sphere since then. As you can tell, I am not averse to Windows entirely, I have a Windows 10 HP laptop (an Elitebook, which I genuinely adore from a hardware repair standpoint). I even dualboot a Linux distro from time to time. So, I like to keep my options open.

 

The truth is that I just got tired of fixing computers, especially OS issues, and my iMac experience has proven that - for me - I could relax and not worry about fixing things so often. 

 

I was a fond fan of Online Bible and owned it for both the PC and the MacOS, but it died a couple years back and so I got in the OliveTree vein. Then, Olive Tree sent out an update for MacOS that caused issues - crashing without displaying Bible content. Given that I am using electronic passages daily in ministry I was blown out of the water. I had not made a backup plan if OliveTree ever fails, and that was shortsighted. So, here I am.

 

:)

As a current author and publisher, I could've written much more here now. However, I will spare you the full autobiography. ;)

Have a great day my friend and thanks again...

Hey Jason, you can take this as me being totally cheeky, and you want to shoot me for it, or take it as what you really should do. So, I'll leave that part up to you.

 

So here goes.

Toss out your Mac device, and get yourself a Windows PC come laptop or even a Microsoft Surface Pro.

 

Now I realize you may take this as blasphemy, and should be burned at the stake for it. But hey, at least I'm trying to, ummm, help you out?! Or maybe not?!

 

Blessings,
