New Site for e-Sword resources.

With the demise of e-Sword-users.org on 13 May 2011, users of e-Sword have not had a web forum to discuss using e-Sword.

On 13 June 2011 that changed, with the public opening of BibleSupport.com.

Current forums are:
1: e-Sword Information and Support
  • e-Sword General Discussion & Questions
  • e-Sword Modules/Resources
  • e-Sword Tools and Utilities
  • Copyright & Licensing
2: e-Sword Technical Support
  • e-Sword 9.x - 10
  • e-Sword 8.x and converting to e-Sword 9.x
3: Theology Discussion
  • Bible Study Material

Download categories are:

3: Utilities

Currently, the site three  utility programs:
e-Sword Hotkeys
e-Sword needs to be running for this program to work.

With this program running, when one selects a scripture reference, and then presses the hot key combination, e-Sword will come to the front, and display the verses that have been selected. The scripture reference can be from any program, or source that one is browsing. 
 ToolTip3 
This program was originally designed to convert scripture references into a format that e-Sword understood. It has since morphed into a general purpose e-Sword resource creation tool:
  • Commentaries
  • Dictionaries
  • Topical Files
  • Bible Translations
  • Verse Lists
STEP2RTF
This program converts STEP resources to RTF format.  From RTF format, resources can be massaged for importing into any software that allows for user created content.
Note: The QuickVerse EULA prohibits format shifting.
