The public domain bible files are straight ascii text files.  Programs
like index exist that can make indices of those files for you so
concordance searches then become possible and a good reading program
like less if you're using a dos or Linux or Mac box can help out nicely.
Microsoft word can import all of those files and then be used to make
tables of contents and index files of its own, but probably the best
windows storage strategy is to store them in an msaccess data base to
really enable searching capabilities.  I know this since I have a copy
of what was put into the simtel archives.

Hi,
I think I read somewhere that programs used for bible reading use a
special file format especially with the public domain files out there.
Does anyone know about this?

Thanks.
Jim
