For instance when you click on a verse you automaticly gets both relevant informmation from study topics on that verse and you get lexicon word explanation underneath. You even get the text if there is a biblevers as reference when you hold the mouse over that verse. It is this integration that makes E-Sword excellent to use. I understand that this would be complicated to get to work in a small handheld device such as n900 but to get crossreferences would be realy a treat.
I would love to test susch thing but I dont have good knowledge in programing and such stuff to make thing happend my self.
With greetings
No worries. I had an idea that this might have been what you are referring to. One of the ways of helping along efforts like Katana is to state what it is you are looking for and a piece of how you would like it to work. Usually speaking, someone can come along and refine things via a UX wireframe, or just go straight to the code.

Adding the kind of experience you are asking for will require some thought, but is worth exploring. If I get the time, I shall play with an idea or two and share it here. Others should contribute as well, so then we can refine the feature, and then see what the impact to Katana will be.

Keep the ideas coming, and don't be afraid to share. You never know who is listening and appreciating thoughts and comments on this effort
