As a windows refugee, the first few times I tried to set up Bible Desktop or BibleTime, I got hopelessly lost. I'd like to try them all, but having spent a fair bit of time and effort setting up everything else on the computer, I don't want to try something else (churchpup) and mess everything else up!KF6SNJ wrote:While I can appreciate the desire to run e-Sword under Wine on Puppy, I am at a loss as to why. I say this for we already have ChurchPup which comes with BibleDesktop preconfigured and it uses the same modules as e-Sword. Also, BibleDesktop is available as a .pet file from the ChurchPup website. It would just seem to me that using a program that is already natively coded for Puppy would fewer system resources than having to run a simulator to run a program that is virtually identical to something that is already available that doesn't need an emulator/simulator. Of course I have a relative that managed to get MSIE7 to run Mepis, though why anyone would want to do that I don't know.
I know this reflects more on my lack of knowledge than the worth of ChurchPup - which I have a copy of on CD.
Could you write a short tutorial on how to get BibleDesktop up and running?
