Also, it has a "lecture" mode, where a speaker's +Bible program induces the audience's programs to follow along. + +Some History. +Up until and including xiphos 4.0.0 biblesync was included as part of +the xiphos source code. It has been removed from the source in xiphos 4.0.1 +and set to be a general library for any bible software that wants to use +shared navigation. It doesn't have it's own web site yet, so is on the +gnomesword source site. +biblesync is a requirement for xiphos 4.0.1 or higher. |
