If I am not mistaken (I couldn't get <tt>wine sword.exe</tt> to work) Sword's
win32 gui uses multiple window panes.&nbsp; You could have a Bible text,
commentary and lexicon open on the desktop simultaneously.&nbsp; The Online
Bible for win32 also does this.&nbsp; This is a necessary addition (imho)
to BibleTime.&nbsp; The best orientation would be "text" | "commentary"
side-by-side, then "lexicon" underneath.&nbsp; I guess "lexicon" would
go where the "notes editor"&nbsp;goes now.&nbsp; The "notes editor" could
be in a popup window.&nbsp; I wouldn't have a problem with that at all.&nbsp;
Of course, users would be free to select which panes are displayed, much
like now.
<p>Great work, God bless!
