Ok, Call me stupid but how can I obtain a Chineese font (or other fonts for
unicode modules for that matter) to test these with? Also which modules
should I download to test the unicode with?
Thanks for any help.

Hello all,
I just finished my color schemes task this last weekend. Troy has the patch
and hopefully everyone will reap the benefits soon. One issue I came across
with making a patch was what to do about those .dfm files for forms in
Borland. In release 5.0 of Borland C++ Builder they added the op

I don't know if this is of use to anyone, but I find it intriguing. I wish
they would've done this sooner, I would have used it with my ReadingPlanner
program. Oh well. It might be of use to someone here.

It looks good. All the bugs I reported are fixed :) But I did find one
additional bug in the TDavid module. It shows garbage in the NT. In the OT
it works fine even outside of the Psalms. But if you go to the la

I use NT 4 with IE 5.5 at home and I cannot get the Unicode characters to

the upgrade to IE 5, since it doesn't seem to work either. I have a win95

Are you referring to the Open Bible by Nelson publishers? If so it is

David
OK So OpenBible is out. :(
The runners up appear to be:
OpenSword
WinSword
Bereans
Berean Sword
I may have missed one or two but I tried to pick the ones that have been
suggested and then commented on by others. At this point I vote OpenSword.
Anyothers?
