@enegue That's great! -- By the way, do you have the EPV publicly available somewhere (e.g. on a website) for reading? ☺
 
 
1 hour later…

@Paul Vargas At the moment it is a tool for my own use.
However, the pastor at my church is going to Africa next year to help a group of people who are translating the scriptures into native languages.
When he saw what I was doing, he asked me to go with him to show them how it might help with their work.
So, I am now on a time-line to transform it into a tool that could be used by others.
I have got a couple of passages on-line for reading.
 
@enegue into native languages: That's amazing!
 
Yeah. My contribution will just be to show them the tool.
I have no credentials in regard to Greek or Hebrew, but I have spent much time working with the various texts of scripture.
 
@enegue I guess is a desktop application.
 
No. It is a web app.
 
@enegue What text you are using for the Old Testament?
 
5:38 AM
Here's a link to a passage I was looking at from [1 Samuel] (users.tpg.com.au/eugenehart/epv/#!1%20Samuel%2013:7-14)
The reading app is standalone and not connected to the database back-end.
 
@enegue Thanks! I'll take a look.
 
WLC is text I've been working from
 
@enegue Ah! You are from Australia because the .au. :-)
 
Yes
 
I'm from Mexico.
 
5:46 AM
Vargas definitely has a Spanish ring to it
My last eye exam was done by a fellow by the name of "Julio Fuentes"
 
@enegue Yep. -- And for the New Testament? I remember one of your answers in one question of the book of John.
 
WH
 
(That was the first time when I saw the EPV in a screenshot.)
 
My very first attempt at doing something of this nature was using LibreOffice Calc
 
@enegue What timezone is there?
 
5:57 AM
Sydney Australia
 
@enegue Ubuntu or Arch Linux or Fedora?
 
Linux Mint
I think it sprang from Ubuntu
 
By the way, I'm with a Android device. Some kind of Linux.
 
So, you are using your phone at the moment.
 
@enegue My computer has Win10 and Ubuntu Gnome.
@enegue A tablet.
 
6:03 AM
The reader won't look good on a phone. It's only in alpha form.
Oh, okay.
It might squeeze onto your screen ;)
Just looked at it on my phone for the first time. Too small in portrait. Has no scrollbars in landscape.
 
That doesn't look too bad
It's readable at least.
 
@enegue ^^^ That's what I see on my tablet.
@enegue Do you have Acts 19?
 
@Paul Vargas Not yet. Which passage in particular?
 
@enegue Acts 19:32-39. I was seeing the word έκκλησία.
 
6:16 AM
@Paul Vargas Okay. I think I saw some mention of it. Whether it was church or synagogue, etc
 
@enegue Right.
 
@Paul Vargas I'll have a look at the passage tonight and see what the text tells me. I don't think it's something that I could determine from the text. But, if nothing else, I can perhaps give another perspective on it.
Time here is 5:21 pm.
 
@enegue OK.
Here is sleeping time.
(A little late.)
 
@Paul Vargas LOL.
I'll let you go. Thanks for the chat.
