While relatively minor, these additional features should be well received by all. The .cmtx viewing for all comments in a chapter when no chapter level content exists will be especially useful.
I agree, the most relevant to me is the commentary chapter logic. Great idea. Good feature.

This revision wasn't too bad. The original module was a lot of work to get it into e-Sword format--and I didn't even digitize the text. I can't fathom the amount of work required to digitize that much material with the Greek and the Hebrew. It would have never happened without the text already digitized.
Have to agree on that. With my own efforts on some projects, hours and hours are needed just to get text formats in order and spelled checked is a very time consuming task.
With the size of langes' being what it is. I expect there will be typo's and minor updates needed to perfect it over time. And well worth the effort I might add..

Can the toolbars be moved to two lines? They take up a lot of vertical space.
Good question! the toolbars do take up a lot of space.. Common complaint I think.
Not so much of a problem if you use one or more of your windows as flyouts rather than leaving them open all the time.

Was just commenting on the constant resizing of computing devices. Make them tiny, make them a little bigger add keyboards.. a cycle we seemt o go through. big to little back to bigger. Of course more and more powerful and advanceds.. Great variety I guess. Great to have this kind of technology. It's one saving grace is it's abiltiy to help with bible study and the promoting of God's work..

Sigh..e-Sword is not available for any platform other than the PC, unless you run an emulator which gives you access to Mac and Linux.
MySword is an android application that resembles how e-Sword would look if e-Sword were an android app. www.MySword.info for more information...

As I look at the vast array of modules available for e-Sword, perhaps the most overwhelming thought that comes to mind is that we actually have a very powerful Bible study tool.
There are many others I can mention that can be added to this list. But what I've pointed out, would have to be the main ones which actually gives the Bible student the depth needed to go into the Word of God.
Josh Bond, in particular has to be credited with bringing out works that have extreme Hermeneutical value for great exegesis. Also, as a result of the above list of Dictionaries available for e-Sword, makes this program perhaps one of the best.
These kinds of resources are invaluable when it comes to good Bible Study. And here is the best part of it, use these in your Topic and Study Note editors, and you have one very powerful program which will bless you beyond measure.
Blessings,

Honestly, other software programs have managed to include this type of functionality with no speed detriment. Generally speaking, If someone reaches the point where they cannot enhance an application further without constant fear of performance penalties, then it's time to look at coding practices and the language it's programmed in. I don't believe that's the case here, though.

Thanks Josh. Dsaw contacted me and suggested to turn off system indexing. I have and it's improved a lot, but it still present to a minor degree.

Year's ago I was in a little Oregon town called Klamath Falls. This little town of 40 thousand souls had something called a free Christian lending library, open to the general public. Thousands of resources were available for the asking, all ran by a lady who gave her time freely.
This is what I see eSword becoming, a world class resource library for Christian brothers and sisters around the world. The 'volunteers' here at BibleSupport are actually changing the way eSword is being used - not different, but better; like a river flowing in a wider/deeper channel. It is all free for the taking, for the spiritually hungry to find nourishment. It seems pretty obvious to me that God's hand is upon BibleSupport to bless His children around the world.</p>

Probably reads like a childs book to the that circle of bible scholars that flourished in Langes day. Great great stuff. So much there.Right, that's true of any original language intensive resource. At first, I would read Lange and not understand any of it. Then as I got used to his writing style, more of it sinks in.
It is very academic. But with Lange's, you're in the major leagues. If you want to evaluate his commentary on Greek or Hebrew, you will need to understand more about those languages. But I find even not knowing Greek and Hebrew that I can glean quite a bit from his text.
