Hi there !


It is better to store your modules on a memory card. This way you are sure you will never fill your root filesystem with data, plus your modules will still be here after an upgrade.

I store them in /media/mmc2/sword . This directory contains the following subdirectories:

locales.d
mods.d
modules
tmp

It is normal the /media/mmc2/sword/modules contains itself lots of subdirecories, such as:

/media/mmc2/sword/modules/texts/ztext/kjv/

I'm having trouble locating the compatible, non copyrighted Bible files for Rapier. (Example King James version and American Standard version). Can anyone help? (excuse me if this has been answered...I searched but didn't see mention of it).

Rapier has a built in installer for those modules: Menu->Manage->Remote then click on "refresh"

Otherwise, any of the modules at: http://www.crosswire.org/sword/modules/index.jsp can be installed manually in the directories listed above in this thread (download the "raw" version of the modules)

Thanks, Jason, for the quick response. I'll try the built-in installer method the next time I'm in a wifi area.

I am having trouble with the Josephus module. I installed it and indexed it, but when I try to view it, all I see on the screen is:

(1)(2)(3)........

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for a great program!

rnfuller: you are doing nothing wrong.
Rapier only handles Bible translation modules:

Sorry about that .

l See . Thanks.

Support planned for the future?

This is really a great program for the tablet!

Thanks for all your hard work

Hi there.

Currently i do not plan to add support for commentary or other non biblical text modules.

There is nothing formally planned for the future as the current status sort of fills my need, even if there are lots of things that can be improved.

Chances are that, next time i will code on Rapier (though i have no clue when that will be), i will try to :

- use libglade
- use gettext for a better internationalisation
- use the sword library for modules management as there is a way now to access this via python
- gives html rendering a try instead of gtk textview , just in case it render faster (the tap scrolling is too slow right now).

This would give something cleaner (especially libglade) where coding new feature would be easier.

My chance to chime in with thanks to pamadio. I'm thoroughly enjoying Rapier, as the digital bible capability was a major reason I bought the IT in the first place. Currently I only have the ESV, KJV and Strong's modules installed and I'm so thrilled with the usability that I'm tempted to say "don't change a thing!"

MUCHOS gracias!

I just installed Rapier using Application Manager on my N800. There's no help module and no Bible version.

How do I use Rapier?
