Hello Ole' yeller
I took a break to find manna updated. I have not forgotten manna. Been snowed under with momma studying overseas and the two kids, foundation and teaching in school. I was asked to find something to help the school here. So I found a man in Chmai who did a puppy for libraries. Now I am seeing if I can add manna to it so I have two in one. With percise Thai is no problem. If get it to work I'll let you know. I did try to build thai into manna/ Once I got the precise version it was easy. slacko Iamnot smart enoughyet. Loyal

e-Sword & BibleAnalyze work under Shinobar's Wine-portable
Hi All,
Those desiring access to Bible Software will be pleased to find that both BibleAnalyzer4 and e-Sword run under Shinobar's Wine-Portable. Information and the download link for Wine-portable can be found here: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=91748. The setup files for e-Sword and BibleAnalyzer can be downloaded from their respective organization's websites, BibleAnalyzer installs without a hitch, but to run e-Sword you'll have to also install Visual basic 6 (vb6). The winetricks GUI is still not working. I think it's a problem of zenity (used to create the GUI) not having fully migrated to newer glibs. But you can download VBRun60.exe directly from Microsoft. You'll have to right-click the wine-portable folder icon and select "Register the portable wine on Puppy Menu" to install the necessary wine.sh bash script. Then open a terminal in the folder containing VBRun60.exe and type, code:
wine.sh VBRun60.exe
which will install and register the necessary libraries.
Don't panic is e-Sword doesn't open immediately. It takes about 30 seconds.
The great advantages of Shinobar's wine-portable is that it can exist anywhere on your computer. Consequently, you can install into it large programs. And many Pups can access the same wine-portable [but see the thread concerning why there are two versions] you only have to install programs once.
I find it more convenient to have separate menu listings for programs running under wine. As each Pup will need its own menu entry. It will be necessary to register wine-portable in any Pup for which a menu entry is desired. Once I create a pet, and registration wine-portable, adding a menu entry is a two-click process. The pet consists of three files: (1) a bash script (with permissions set to executable) located at /root/my-applications/bin; (2) an appropriate icon located at /usr/share/pixmaps; and (3) a desktop file in /usr/share/applications. If you've placed such files within their respective folders in an umbrella folder with a specific name, open a terminal in the folder containing the umbrella folder, and type "dir2pet umbrella" --without the quotes--you'll have a pet named "umbrella" (:)) you can install at your leisure.
For e-Sword, I used the following bash-script:
#!/bin/sh
wine.sh /mnt/home/wine-portable-1.6.2-1-precise/wine-data/drive_c/'Program Files'/e-Sword/e-Sword.exe
and my e-Sword.desktop reads:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=e-Sword
Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/My-ping.png
Comment=Bible Study
Exec=/root/my-applications/bin/e-Sword
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=X-Personal
GenericName=e-Sword
Make sure that your spelling and capitalizations of the files identified in the desktop file correspond with the files they refer to.
