[bd-users] cant find modules on mac

[DM Smith]

TC,
I plan to add support to BibleDesktop so that it can use Sword  
Modules that MacSword stores in its module folder, but it it not as  
simple as I would like.

I have figured out that you can teach MacSword to use BibleDesktop's  
modules. In MacSword's preferences, set the Location of Modules to / 
Users/carrtc/.jsword

Then use BibleDesktop's Tools -> Books to install books. Don't follow  
the instructions for installing modules for MacSword.

I've had a Mac for a few months and am still trying to figure out how  
to do things the Mac way.

I hope this helps,
	DM
