Hi All,

I've uploaded a pre-release of BPBible 0.4.3 to http://code.google.com/p/bpbible/downloads/list
Some changes in a rough form are mentioned here: http://bpbible.com/news/bpbible-0.4.3-changes

I intend (DV) to release this on Wednesday, if I have time and no one finds holes which are too big to fix quickly. This will be April 1... :)

This version has the latest language files that I have. 
If translators have time to update the few items that have changed before it is released, that would be great.
If this is too soon for you, I could delay the release a little.

God Bless,
Ben

I don't think we will have a release today. Paulos found a bug in searching in Chinese bibles which I want to fix first...
I won't have time before about next Monday to release, I think.

The release notes have been updated and some screenshots put up.

OK. I'll have to confess ignorance of chinese. What I gather is that words in chinese do not have spaces in between them (so it is hard for a computer to tell what is a word), but the chinese-speaker knows what the words are. Am I correct?

The way BPBible currently works for search is to consider words by splitting on spaces. If the language doesn't have spaces, then you end up with very long "words" - much longer than the real chinese word. Try putting a * before and after the chinese word. Does this give what you want? It will probably give some extra hits that you don't want, but it should at least return something. If this is what you want, I can probably put it in to do that automatically.

The bug that I saw related to the use of strong's numbers with excessive whitespace, leading to multiple spaces in a row in the index, which wasn't supported. I'll have to fix this.


God Bless,
Ben

Yes,In chinese the words  do not have spaces between them,that don't like english.
When I  try  to putting a * before and after the chinese word, I get  the  corret  results!
So i think,bpbible can do it automatically,but i don't how to check wether the search results is truely as what it is.
It's also have some problem when  search for strong's number  in chinese bible
  Thanks!
 
God Bless
Paulos.
