LONDON, United Kingdom (December 22, 2003) -- Hiddenfield Software today
announces the availability of the next version of Bible Reader Free, made
with REALbasic.
Bible Reader Free is a free Bible viewing application for Mac OS X.
Bible Reader Free features:
----------------------

? Strong's Concordance
? Browse multiple chapters and multiple translations simultaneously
? Search specific chapters, books or sections, across any of the
translations
? Create and apply Swaps-change 'thee' to 'you' for example
? Read passages without the distraction of verse numbers, in Story Mode
? Take Notes and store them for later use
? One-Click formatting of selected verses for use in other applications
? Online Help and Quickstart Guide included
Changes in version 0.96:
--------------------
[NEW] Online Help has been rewritten and is more complete, and now runs in
Apple's Help System.
[OPT] Much of the code has been rewritten, resulting in speed improvements
in many areas, particularly in retrieving and displaying the Bible chapters,
and switching between translations.
[NEW] Added American Standard Version translation
[NEW] Added Webster's translation
[NEW] Added Young's translation
[NEW] Added Derby translation
[CHG] Strongs: Due to errors in the previous Strongs references
(particularly the last character missing in each reference, making a
cross-reference of 1401 become 140 for example), new Strongs has been
provided. If you are using a version prior to 0.96, please download the new
Strongs translation from our website.
[CHG] Strongs: References now show in a Drawer rather than within the main
window. We were not happy with the way that the Strongs reference field took
up space in the window where the Chapter was being displayed.
[NEW] Search: Searches can now be performed on any translation, not only
KJV.
[NEW] Saved windows (windows that open on launch from last use) now honor
the translation that was used in each window.
[FIX] Text Size option in preferences for search results has never worked!
Now it does.
[FIX] Clicking Close on a new Note, then saving it did not set the correct
type/creator for the Note file.
[NEW] Browser windows now have their own separate Font Size adjustment
buttons that affect only that window.
[FIX] Preference for Searches to find Swapped Words now working.
[FIX] Links to the website and email in the About box are now working
[FIX] Copy Format bug, where selecting the first verse in a chapter would
cause Bible Reader Free to lock up indefinitely. Also took the opportunity
to improve Copy Format for cases where a whole verse is selected: previously
'...' might have been added before or after the verse, and the verse range
was not always correct either.
Plus many tweaks and optimizations.
Bible Reader Free is, as its name says, free software.
