e-Sword Updated to v8.0.5

The e-Sword Bible program has been upgraded to version 8.0.5!

According to the developer, Rick Meyers:

The e-Sword user interface has been completely localized. The various menus and dialogs can be displayed in numerous languages, with the initial offering of Afrikaans, Czech, German, French, Slovak and Spanish. As the e-Sword GUI Localization will be an add-on module, this will be updated individually as new languages are added to it.

Scripture references are displayed using localized abbreviations, and popup ToolTips are converted according to the language in use.

A new Bible book browser has been implemented.

The Orthodox Apocrypha is now supported, in addition to the Catholic Deuterocanon. Both the Revised Standard Version and New Revised Standard Version add-ons now include an additional module with all of these Books.

Some of the text colors and window backgrounds can be customized. Select "Options, Text Colors" from the e-Sword menu to use this feature. This will also allow you to turn off red-letter formatting in Bibles if you so desire. [This feature I really like! MAC]

Go here to download either the update or the application installation.
