THEOLOGICAL DICTIONARY of the NEW TESTAMENT (CBD #2404 $39.95) The 1992 Greek lexicon is keyed to this work. If you can not afford the ten volume Kittel, this one volume "Little Kittel" is an excellent substitute. This contains many word studies. 2. THEOLOGICAL WORDBOOK of the OLD TESTAMENT (CBD #86312 $39.95) The 1992 Hebrew lexicon is keyed to this work. This extensive, scholarly work includes discussions of every Hebrew word of theological significance in the Old Testament. It contains over 1,400 articles written by 43 Old Testament scholars. 3. LITTLE KITTEL and THEOLOGICAL WORDBOOK (CBD #2486 $69.90) Christian Book Distributors offer this special price if you order both of these books at the same time. 4. NEW MATTHEW HENRY COMMENTARY (CBD #75516 $39.95) This classic has just been redone in easier to read print. 5) HOW THEN SHOULD WE LIVE? by Francis A. Schaefer, Published by Crossway Books, Westchester, Ill., 1983. In school you were taught what happened in history. Schaefer tells us why! He traces the rise and decline of western thought and culture and the breakdown of the Christian ethos. One of the few books written in this century that is worth rereading. These books are available from either of these two stores. Christian Book Distributors Good Book Services P.O.

The number set you now have is a super-set of the Englishman's Greek and Hebrew concordance and is the most accurate set of Strong's numbers in existence. These numbers are so accurate we use the term "Englishman's Strong's Numbers" to describe them. This allows you to distinguish between ours and other sets of Strong's numbers. The average set now used by most Bible programs contains about 35000 errors or omissions. We are the only organisation that will pay you $10 for each error you find in our numbers. Read on for the details. General Observations and Problems --------------------------------- We used the Englishmen's Greek and Hebrew Concordance (keyed to Strong's) published by Baker Book House. We found no errors in the Greek Concordance. The main Hebrew Concordance was also free from error. We found a handful of errors in the name concordance at the end of the Hebrew concordance. These were obvious and were corrected. Strong's system worked perfectly for the NT. The OT had some problems that are inherent in the Hebrew itself. a) Lack of capitalisation. This causes ambiguity in assigning numbers. For example: 0520, 0521 are both the same Hebrew word, Adam or Man. The number you assign in some cases in arbitrary. We followed the Strong's concordance in this case. In Ho. 6:7 the word is translated "men" but the marginal reading in the AV is "Adam". Both are correct. b) Hebrew synonyms. These are words that are assigned different Strong's numbers but are written exactly the same in the Hebrew. The English equivalent for the Hebrew words given in Strong's lexicon in his concordance, was used to sort these out. Proper Place names Beth-el 01004, 0430 This is composed of two Hebrew words , "house", and "God". Sometimes it is translated as Beth-el and other times as "house of God". The context would determine it. The NASB translates this as Beth-el in Jud. 20:18, 26, 31, 21:1. Gill disagrees with this and gives excellent reasons for it. To be safe, we double listed this using the number 8677 as follows "house <01004> of God <0430> <08677> <01008>" This way no matter how you search you should find both. "Waters of Strife" in Ps. 106:32 Eze. 47:19,48:28 was treated in a similar manner as Beth-el. b) Hebrew synonyms. Sometimes two different Hebrew words are spelled exactly the same way. We followed the English renderings for each number as given in the back of the Strong's concordance to sort these out. Fortunately, very few numbers have this problem. Example 7122, 7125, we assigned 7125 to the Qal Infinitive and 7122 to all the other forms. This is a list of problem numbers. 424,425 504,505 520,521 732,736 739,740,741 794,798 811,812 853,854 881,885 1208,1210 1252,1253 2015,2017 2158,2159 2167,2168 2172,2173 2333,2334 2336,2337 2506,2511 2603,2589 2734,8474 3684,3685 3738,3739 4803,4178 5975,5976 6145,5892 6148,6149 6362,6358 6416,6417 6822,6823 6957,6978 6995,6996 7093,7078 7122,7125 7478,7479 7582,7583 7601,8155 7819,7829 8231,8235 8388,8379 8378,8379 8427,8228 8451,8452 c) The verb parsings for the OT come from the Hebrew concordance. These differ at times from what the BDB lexicon uses especially on the rarer forms. Since we found no errors in Wigram's work and errors in BDB we followed Wigram's material. In some of the more difficult cases, we used Gill's Expositor to sort out the Hebrew. (9 Volumes 1760) What John Gill forgot about Greek and Hebrew is more than anyone today will ever know about these subjects. Strong's Number Correction Procedure ------------------------------------ The following procedure was used to correct the Strong's numbers. 1) The contents of the New Englishman's Hebrew Concordance was entered using topics 20001 to 28674. Each unique Strong's number was entered as a topic in verse note format. The verb parsings were entered as comments in the topic. e.g. Strong's Number 7 was stored in topic 20007 as * perish * p'al future # Jer 10:11 * aphel infinitive # Da 2:12,24 7:26 * aphel future # Da 2:18,24 * hophal preterite # Da 7:11 2) A computer generated list of Strong's numbers was created for each verse in the Bible. This was compared against the text and all differences printed for correction. 3) All kithiv, qere, and multiple entries for a number were noted using numbers 8675 through 8679. See the lexicon definitions for these numbers. 4) Verb parsings were summarised and assigned numbers 8680 through 8809. These numbers were then added to all 71000 verbs in the Old Testament. 5) If a proper name was composed of several Hebrew words, generally, we listed only the Strong's number for the proper name. e.g. Beth-el. The number for "Beth" and 'el" would not be listed, but the number for Beth-el would. 6) The main Hebrew concordance was very well done; we found no other errors. The name concordance was not done as well and the numbers were sometimes incorrectly assigned. The following are possible sources of errors: a) If the concordance listed a Hebrew word more than once but used only one line in the concordance. In typing in the text, the entry should have been made more than once but may not have been. Our proof reading of the English text should have caught most of these. b) If the same verb occurs more than once in a verse, the verb parsings may be crossed. This was triple checked so is not likely. c) The Hebrew concordance lists several numbers for a grouping. We may have misassigned the numbers. The New Testament was done in a similar fashion. 1) The contents of the New Englishman's Greek Concordance was entered using topics 10001 to 15624. Each unique Strong's number was entered as a topic in verse note format. 2) A computer generated list of Strong's numbers was created for each verse in the New Testament. This was compared against the text and all differences printed for correction. 3) Some multiple entries were noted using the suffix number 5625. 4) Sometimes Strong listed a Greek phrase as one number, e.g. 3363, 3364. The Englishman's Concordance often listed these under these numbers and the individual Greek words as well. We chose to list the number used to represent a phrase. 5) J.B. Smith's Concordance frequency counts were checked for each number. All numbers agreed except 846 - short by 205 848 - short by 12 (Smith missed at least one, Mr. 9:16) 1437 - short by 53 1519 - short by 3 1722 - over by 16 2443 - short by 41 3739 - short by 85 3756 - over by 82 In checking the Greek, we found errors in Smith's work so did not continue to check these eight categories. We have yet to see a word study on these words so this should cause no problems for the user. Since we added the Strong's numbers for the epilogues to the Pauline Epistles, we adjusted the Concordance counts accordingly. We found about a dozen categories in J.B. Smith's work that were inaccurate, usually short by one. We corrected these in our lexicon. 6) In the New Testament the following numbers are omitted. 1418 - used only as a prefix and not indexed by Strong 2717 - omitted by Strong 3203 to 3302 - omitted by Strong 4452 - used only as a part of a word and not indexed by Strong 7) The verb parsings were done as follows: a) A complete list of all the unique words in the Greek text was compiled. b) Using the "New Analytical Greek Lexicon" by Perschbacher, each word was parsed and assigned a Strong's number. An errata was sent to Dr. Perschbacher for correction when the lexicon is reprinted. c) About 6 spelling errors in the Online Bible Greek texts were corrected. d) The verbs in the Stephanus Greek text were parsed using this list. The Strong's number set was used to eliminate duplicate entries. e) The resulting set was moved into the English text electronically. If a parsing could not be assigned accurately, it was placed in the verse in the same order it occurred in the Greek NT. f) All 1900 ambiguous parsings were checked using Green's Interlinear to verify the parsings occurred in the same order in English as they did in the Greek. The following is a list of difficult parsings found in the NT. Mt 11:21 1096 Mt 11:23 1096 Mt 23:13 1525 Joh 13:15 4160 Joh 17:2 1325 Ac 7:35 1492 Ac 13:39 1344 1Th 3:5 3985 1Jo 2:6 4043 Re 18:6 2767 g) A list of about 1700 multiple parsings for a verb was compiled, and the extraneous entries removed by examining the context in the Greek. The parsings for some verbs differ from Timothy Friberg's "Analytical Greek New Testament" in some places. Friberg based his work on the Nestle's Greek Text not the Scrivener text. We followed the old Davidson Analytical Lexicon in most cases and only occasionally referred to Friberg's work to get a second opinion. Some pasings were clearly ambiguous and in such cases both parsings were retained. The Greek makes perfect sense no matter which parsing you choose. The following are possible sources of errors: a) If the concordance listed a Greek word more than once but used only one line in the concordance. In typing in the text, the entry should have been made more than once but may not have been. Our cross check with the J.B. Smith's frequency counts should have all these types of errors. b) If the same verb occurs more than once in a verse, the verb parsings may be crossed. To correct the Old and New Testament represents several man-years of work and a great expense on our part. Statistically, we estimate there are about 50 errors left in the Old Testament out of 229,000 numbers and 71,000 verb parsings. We have accepted the Hebrew concordance as accurate, however, we corrected some errors in its Strong's numbers. Also note that Wigram used a different method to parse verbs than the Brown Driver Briggs Lexicon. We followed Wigram's. If Hebrew scholars cannot decide how to do it, what hope is there for the rest of us? Please report any errors to us. The first person to report an error will receive $10 for each incorrect number. If two categories are reversed, we will pay a maximum of $25. In addition, when we correct the numbers, you will be sent the corrected text module free on Oct 1, 1994. For the Greek 121,000 numbers and 28,000 verb parsings we expect you to find no errors or omissions except in the eight numbers so noted. The same offer holds for the New Testament except for these eight numbers, 846, 848, 1437, 1519, 1722, 2443, 3739, and 3756. All errors must be received by October 1 1994 to qualify. The "Read-Me" on the Mini-Menu latest install disk, will contain a list of the errors found to date and the names of the persons who found them. This offer does not apply to the NKJV text or to the exact placement of the numbers. On the latter there are bound to be differences of opinion. If I cannot verify the error report, the Hebrew and Greek professor, Dr. M. Robinson, will help me. His decision is final. Unless you know Greek and Hebrew, you are not likely to find any errors.

See topic 9906 for details. 09904 Software Distribution --------------------- To help you distribute the Online Bible we suggest you use COPYQM. This copies disks quickly and accurately. This is the next best thing to a disk copying machine. Note that COPYQM is not freeware; Please write or call Sydex for ordering information. Cost is about $20. Sydex, P.O. Box 5700, Eugene, OR, 97405 or call (503) 683-6033 Disk Capacity ------------- DOS computers come with various kinds of floppy disk drives - 5-1/4 and 3-1/2 inch size, 360K, 720K, 1.2M and 1.44M capacity, and others. The installation procedure for the Online Bible is independent of the capacity of the media, so any DOS disk format can be used to distribute the Online Bible. For example, to distribute the Online Bible on 3-1/2 inch 720K disks, copy the 360K disks to 720K disks in the same order you normally install them; since two 360K disks fit on one 720K disk, you should end up with half as many 720K disks as 360K disks. Using Different Disk Sizes -------------------------- Create a new master copy on a different disk size by observing the following rules: 1. All 3 1/2 master must be formatted with a DOS 3.2 boot sector. Otherwise, many DOS systems will be unable to read them. Either format these using DOS 3.2 FORMAT command or order a preformatted master disks from Rev. Phil Lindner. ($3 will cover the costs) See To-Order doc for his address. Alternately, use COPYQM 2.26 or later to create the proper format masters. For 1.44 meg floppies on A drive: copyqm a: p=c:\bible\master.144 ret=0 For 1.2 meg floppies on A drive: copyqm a: p=c:\bible\master.120 ret=0 For 720k floppies on A drive: copyqm a: p=c:\bible\master.720 ret=0 For 360k floppies on B drive: copyqm b: p=c:\bible\master.360 ret=0 This assumes you have the Bible program installed in c:\bible. Notwithstanding MicroSoft's disclaimers, all 3.5" disks must have a 3.2 boot sector for maximum compatibility. Otherwise, some versions of DOS will incorrectly report that the disks are unreadable. This is a DOS bug. 2. Use write protect tabs on the 5 1/4 inch disks and the write protect latch on the 3 1/2 inch disks. Do this for your master copy and all copies you make. 3. Copy all files using option "B" on the "install" menu program. This procedure allows you to either make a duplicate set of your masters or create new masters on any size of disk media. DO NOT alter the date and time-stamps or the install procedure will fail. 4. Install your new master copy BEFORE you use it to make copies for your friends. 5. Avoid using a high density 5 1/4" drive to copy low density disks. This is NOT reliable. If you must, first format the low density disks on a low density drive. 6. Try your new install disks before you distribute them.

Les Editions CLÉ à Villeurbanne accepteront votre avis avec intérêt. Nous supposons que vous possédez une machine de la classe 386/SX, ou mieux, avec au moins 4 Millions d'Octets de mémoire. Les précisions suivantes proviennent du manuel du DOS 5.0, qui n'est pas évident. Pour un achat, nous recommandons, en tant que "Hard" et que "Soft": 386/DX à 33 MHZ ou plus, avec 64K de mémoire Cache, 4 M de mémoire (70 nano-secondes, ou plus rapide) Ecran Couleur VGA (ou SVGA) avec 0.29 "dot pitch", ou moins. Un "floppy" 3 1/2 pouces, Haute Densité 1.44 M. Un disque dur 110 M. (200 - 250 M. seraient mieux) 2 Ports Série, et un Port parallèle. MS-DOS 5.0 ou DR DOS 6.0 pour le système d'exploitation. Word Perfect 5.1, version DOS. Il est, mondialement, un des traitements de texte les plus populaires. La souris est optionnelle, mais non nécessaire. Windows serait une solution ... s'il y avait un problème ! Ne gaspillez pas votre argent pour cela. Un "floppy" de 5 1/4 pouces n'est pas nécessaire. N'importe qui pourra convertir une disquette que vous recevriez dans ce format désuet en disquette 3 1/2 pouces. Un /486 est seulement 20 pour cent plus rapide qu'un /386 similaire, et sera plus coûteux, à moins que vous n'ayez vraiment besoin du processeur avec virgule flottante... Le coût du "hard" devrait être de $1500 (7500 F) et le "soft" d'environ $300 (1500 F). Prix en dollars US pour 1992, et qui vont baisser dans l'avenir. Configuration de Base --------------------- Ne partitionnez pas votre disque dur. Ceci gaspillerait de la place. DOS 5.0 est très à l'aise avec les disques de grande capacité (250 M.) Assurez-vous que la mémoire RAM est établie entre 640 K et un Million. Voyez votre vendeur à ce sujet. CONFIG.SYS ---------- Pour obtenir un usage optimal de la mémoire, utilisez le modèle de CONFIG.SYS ci-dessous: device=c:\dos\himem.sys device=c:\dos\emm386.exe noems dos=high,umb break=on buffers=40 files=50 lastdrive=z devicehigh c:\dos\ansi.sys devicehigh c:\dos\mouse.sys devicehigh c:\dos\setver.exe devicehigh c:\dos\smartdrv.sys 256 devicehigh c:\dos\ramdrive.sys 1024 512 512/e shell=c:\command.com c:\ /e:512 /p stacks=9,9 1) Effacez la ligne MOUSE.SYS si vous n'avez pas de souris. 2) Effacez SMARTDRV.SYS si votre disque dur a au moins 256K de "cache" Les autres lignes sont expliquées dans votre manuel DOS. Par ce Set Up, vous aurez environ 624000 octets de mémoire libre. Utilisez la commande MEM pour le vérifier, en tapant: MEM puis (ENTER) AUTOEXEC.BAT ------------ Trouvez ci-dessous un AUTOEXEC.BAT de base pour DOS 5.0 @echo off rem rem RAM DRIVE est présumé être le disque D: rem Le disque dur est présumé être C: rem verify on rem rem Set up Couleurs écran et "prompt" rem prompt $e[0;32;44m$p$g echo on cls echo off rem rem Set up Chemin d'accès rem path c:\bible;c:\dos rem rem Set up Clavier - Charge Résidents (TSR) en mémoire haute rem lh c:\dos\doskey.com /bufsize=1024 lh mode con:rate=32,delay=1 rem rem Crée répertoire TEMP sur RAM drive pour accélérer les programmes rem d: md temp label 386-D-RAM c: rem rem Fixe variables SET pour utilisation de RAM drive en espace tempo. rem rem rem LHARC or LHA (si vous les utilisez) rem set lharc.tmp=d:\temp rem rem Produits MS-DOS rem set temp=d:\temp rem rem Word Perfect rem set wp=/d-d:\temp rem rem Ajoutez ici la suite du fichier autoexec.bat rem Vous pouvez adapter le PATH (Chemin d'accès) selon vos désirs. Si vous chargez un "Terminate and Stay Resident programs (TSR's)", utilisez la commande LH pour le charger en mémoire haute. Par exemple, pour charger un programme MENU.EXE, situé dans le répertoire OUTILS, introduisez, dans l'autoexec.bat la ligne: lh c:\outils\menu.exe S'il est nécessaire d'introduire des paramètres, mettez les sur la même ligne. Ceci vous laissera un maximum de mémoire pour faire fonctionner les programmes. Lorsque c'est possible, chargez les plus grands "TSR's" en premier. Sinon, DOS va fragmenter la mémoire haute, et vous n'obtiendrez pas les meilleurs résultats. DOSSHELL -------- Le programme DOSSHELL vous permet de faire fonctionner plusieurs programmes à la fois, comme WINDOWS, mais chaque programme s'exécute en mode plein écran. Vous n'avez pas à écarquiller vos yeux par l'observation d'une minuscule fenêtre de texte. A la différence de WINDOWS, presque tous les programmes fonctionnent avec le SHELL, sans modifications ni de mise à jour coûteuse. Il est facile à utiliser. Si dans l'AUTOEXEC.BAT la variable TEMP est dirigée vers le disque RAM, assurez-vous que ce disque RAM contient au moins 1.5 Mo. Sinon, achetez un complément de mémoire, ou envoyez la variable TEMP vers le disque dur. Démarrez tous les résidents (TSR) avant de lancer le SHELL. 1) Supprimez les souris non-standard. Le shell ne travaille qu'avec la vraie "MS Mouse". Une souris n'est d'ailleurs pas nécessaire pour utiliser le shell. 2) Tapez: DOSSHELL 3) Activez la "Commutation des tâches" si c'est la première fois que vous utilisez le shell. 3a) Pressez F10 (Menu) 3b) Tapez O (Options) 3c) Tapez T pour sélectionner "acTiver la commutation de tâches" 3d) S'il n'y a pas de "." à côté de l'option pressez ENTER, autrement pressez ESC. Ceci n'est à faire que la première fois, les autres fois le "swapper" sera activé. 4) Pour lancer un programme 4a) Pressez F10, ENTER 4b) Pressez E, pour sélectionner Exécuter 4c) Entrez la ligne de commande nécessaire au lancement du programme. La commande peut être un fichier BATCH. 4d) Pour lancer un autre COMMAND.COM ne pressez pas SHIFT F9 mais tapez F10 ENTER R Au message de commande, tapez: command /e:512 Ceci permet au processeur de commande d'avoir un espace d'environnement de 512 bytes, suffisant dans la plupart des cas. 5) Pour retourner au shell. 5a) Appuyez sur la touche ALT et pressez la touche TAB jusqu'à être revenu au shell. 5b) Pour lancer un autre programme, refaites l'étape 4 quand vous êtes revenu au shell. 5c) Pour basculer sur un autre programme, refaites l'étape 5a) jusqu'à ce que le programme soit sélectionné. 6) Pour sortir de shell 6a) Sélectionnez chaque programme tournant sous shell, et terminez le normalement. Pressez ENTER pour retourner au shell. 6b) Quand tous les programmes ont été fermés, 6b1) Pressez F10 et ENTER 6b2) Pressez Q pour Quitter Le shell fait bien plus que cela, mais ces éléments sont suffisants pour une utilisation courante. DOSCLIP (Pour Versions U.S) ... ------- But : Utilitaire résident qui fournit un Couper-Coller identique à celui de Windows pour les applications tournant sous le shell du DOS 5.0, ceci permettant des transferts de blocs de textes entre deux applications. Format: DOSCLIP /B /U Remarques DOSCLIP est chargé depuis le DOS et nécessite 10Ko de mémoire en résident. L'option /B est un paramètre nécessaire si la vidéo n'est pas conforme à la vidéo IBM standard. L'option /U désinstalle le programme, avec les limitations habituelles des TSR. Les touches d'utilisation par défaut sont Alt+Ctrl+D, qui amène DOSCLIP dans l'application et remplace le curseur normal par un bloc utilisé pour définir une surface de texte devant être transférée. Les flèches, les touches PgUp et PgDn, Home et End sont utilisées pour le déplacement. Ctrl-Gauche et Ctrl-Droite déplacent latéralement de huit caractères. Pour bloquer une surface, placer le curseur sur un coin, par exemple Haut à Gauche, puis déplacez-le vers le coin diagonalement opposé en laissant appuyée la touche Shift. En relâchant la touche Shift, la surface définie est sauvée en pressant Enter ou la touche D. Une surface de texte définie peut être collée dans une autre application en pressant Alt+Ctrl+V ou en amenant DOSCLIP par Alt Ctrl D puis en pressant V. DOSCLIP doit être chargé avant les autres applications, dans votre AUTOEXEC.BAT comme indiqué dans l'exemple du début. DOSCLIP a été écrit par Douglas Boling et a été décrit le 14 Avril 1992 dans PC magazine. Ce programme est sous Copywrit déposé, vous ne pouvez pas en faire de copies payantes, ni l'utiliser pour un usage commercial. Ce programme est inclus dans la Bible Online, il contient d'autres options. Pour compléments, écrivez à PC Magazine. WINDOWS ------- Avec DOSCLIP et le shell DOS 5.0, qui a besoin de windows? Nous avons vu tourner OS/2 version 2, et avons été très impressionné. Les applications Windows tournent sous OS/2 sans le problème de l'environnement DOS. Une version future de la Bible Online sera orientée vers l'environnement OS/2 Presentation Manager. ---Fin t09905 09906 Commercial Licensing -------------------- The following material may be licensed for commercial use. There are two classes of users. 1) Class A: You allow your material to be freely copied, and solicit no payment or shareware fee. You must have license to use our material with yours. However, there is no cost to you for this. 2) Class B: You are not a Class A user. You must have a license and pay a royalty for using our material for each copy of your material that is sold. Copies given away gratis for any reason are exempt from royalties. Also copies sold for at less than 35 per cent of the standard retail cost to theological students, pastors, and missionaries are exempt from royalties. Material that can be Licensed: ------------------------------ 1) 1769 Authorised Version, with marginal readings, with Webster update, Englishman's Strong's Numbers and verb parsings plus Greek and Hebrew lexicon. If you have a commercial Bible program with Strong's numbers, you have a mess. Send us any sample of text and we will return an error list to you to prove what we are saying.

We corrected over 15,000 errors in the Version 5 text alone. 2) Cross references. 2a) Bare cross references without TSK text. 2b) Complete TSK text corrected and formatted for the OLB verse note facility, including cross references. 3) Topics. 3a) Thompson Chain 3b) New Topical Text Book 3c) Other Topical material 4) Verse Notes. 5) Foreign translations, with and without Englishman's Strong's numbers. 6) Other English versions with and without Englishman's Strong's numbers. 7) Online Bible Search Engine with your custom text. Source material that would normally be in the public domain is covered by the "Performance Copyright" provision of the copyright laws. This means because the material is now on a totally different media and format from the original published editions, and we were the ones to put it in that format and did not copy it from someone else, our labours are protected by copyright law. This prevents others from reworking our material and passing it off as their own work. Write for a current list of available material and terms. Larry Pierce R. R. 2. West Montrose, Ont. Canada N0B 2V0 Because most of the work for the Online Bible was done by volunteers, it is not right that we should profit from their labours. Therefore, all electronic rights have been assigned to the "Institute for Creation Research" and all royalties will be paid directly to them not us. 09907 Dictionnaire Bible Segond pour WORD 5.5 --------------------------------------- Le fichier SEGOND.CMP, dans le répertoire de la Bible, contient la liste de tous les mots se trouvant dans la version Segond, mais pas dans le dictionnaire de base de Word 5.5 (En particulier les noms propres). Cette liste est au format ASCII, et peut être facilement transposée à d'autres dictionnaires de Traitements de Textes. En rendant ce dictionnaire actif, votre vérificateur de document ne s'arrêtera plus sur tous ces mots qu'il ne connaissait certainement pas ! 09908 History of the Online Bible --------------------------- Oct. 1987 - AV text obtained from Public Brand Software Mar. 1988 - Version 1 - AV text only and basic searching and printing facilities Mar. 1989 - Version 2 - pull-down user menu interface - NIV text added Oct. 1989 - Version 3 - NT Strong's numbers and Thayer's Lexicon added - Verse Note facility added Mar. 1990 - Version 4 - AV text certified as accurate by Sharp Electronics in Japan - OT Strong's numbers and Strong's Lexicon - NT Cross References Oct. 1990 - Version 5 - new install procedure - Brown Driver Briggs Hebrew Lexicon replaces Strong's - topics facility added - OT Cross references Between Jan 1. 1991 and Oct. 1992 - Larry Pierce quits his job to work full-time on Online Bible - Greek & Hebrew modules created that display actual Greek and Hebrew - 1989 Spanish RVA module - 2 Dutch texts module - 2 German texts module - Combined AV-Creole Module created - 1833 Webster Bible scanned in - 1890 Darby Bible and Notes scanned in - 1910 Louis Second French text created - 1910 Louis Segond keyed to Englishman's Strong's numbers - Operation Mobilisation mass distributes French Online Bible in France - Macintosh Version 1.0 beta tested at selected sites. - Strong's numbers corrected using Greek and Hebrew Englishman's concordances. - all verbs parsed in Greek, French and English Bible - international dealer network setup in U.K, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa Oct. 1992 - Version 6 - new improved very simple install procedure - new manual published based on NIV BibleMaster manual in England - Combined English and European Languages with Englishman's Strong's numbers created for first time in history. - The only accurate set of Strong's numbers in the world published under the name of Englishman's Strong's numbers - frequency counts now in OT lexicon - over 5000 topics added to Online Bible - Macintosh Version 2.0 of Online Bible distributed, supports all version 6 features of the IBM Online Bible. - alternate notes, topics and definitions new supported - hyper-text features added to notes facility Future plans - key the Greek and Hebrew Bibles to Englishman's Strong's numbers and parse every word - add "People New Testament Commentary" by B.W.Johnson - add new language modules - add new notes and topics modules - migrate Online Bible to OS/2 Release 2.0 Presentation Manager environment. MS Windows runs better under OS/2 than under DOS. Therefore we feel OS/2 is operating system we can build tomorrow's applications. MS Windows and DOS are dead ends. The Online Bible was the first and is still the only Bible program in the world that allows you to freely copy it. Based firmly on the principal of grace not greed, this has enabled the Online Bible to be the most popular Bible search program. The best things in life are free and you should not try to commercialise the Bible. New languages and features are added almost every other month. Send for the latest catalogue by writing your closest international distributor. See the To-Order option on the Mini-Menu. 09909 BULLETIN BOARD SUPPORT ---------------------- Those whose computer does not have a hard disk, or is not IBM-compatible, can still use the Online Bible via modem from any computer bulletin board system that makes the Online Bible available. The screen display is shortened to 24 lines from the normal 25 to permit a status display line for the bulletin board software. To protect the bulletin board system from accidents or deliberate misuse by callers, the system operator should install the Online Bible in the normal way but start it as follows: av-dby bb - or - call av-dby bb The special startup parameter "BB" makes the Online Bible safe for bulletin board use by preventing any user from either creating files on the host system, or escaping to DOS. If your bulletin board software requires that all programmes must use the BIOS for screen I/O, start the Online Bible this way: av-dby bb bios - or - call av-dby bb bios This forces the Online Bible to write to the screen through the BIOS. The bulletin board option uses the message file MESSAGES.BBV. The ASCII control codes are used instead of the function keys and the special PC keys. A user with a dumb ASCII terminal can access the Online Bible. The special extended ASCII characters are used only on the first screen displayed. The ESC key is mapped to "Control \" and "Control C" is mapped to "Control _". To provide the Online Bible on a bulletin board, so its disks can be downloaded, we suggest the following procedure. 1. The bulletin board operator uses PKZIP to create an archive for each disk in the distribution package. 2. Each ZIP file is downloaded and UNZIPPED to a single disk. 3. Do the installation using the installation disk in the normal way. If the time stamps are changed on the Online Bible files, the installation fails. If the files are downloaded using XMODEM, the time stamps are lost and the file sizes changed. Hence, the files must be downloaded in ZIP format. 09910 next 9951 ---***---
