<br>
Is there a way to install a module manually from a local source? (like
Module Maintainer Mode in PocketSword) I'd like to be able to install a
module that I've been working on for a friend who has an Android device.<br>
<br>
I also don't see an item on the Wiki page
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.crosswire.org/Choosing_a_SWORD_program">https://wiki.crosswire.org/Choosing_a_SWORD_program</a>) that indicates
this support. Maybe I don't know what I'm looking at.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>

OK, so hitting About didn't <i>actually</i> put the app into a
hard lock-up. It just looked exactly like that, to the resolution
of 50x of the typical time frame that Joe Average expects when
asking for About.<br>
<br>
When I was getting this new tablet(*) configured, I copied my
entire module set into it. There are 450+ Bibles in there, out of
almost 800 total, and the About handler is going to the trouble to
crawl around mods.d/*.conf for ALL of them. It takes upwards of
half a minute, and previously I had killed it off after waiting
maybe 10 or 15 seconds...because it <i>looked</i> like a hard
lock-up when all I wanted was, you know, About. Then I set it down
while "locked up," to start writing this email, and...<br>
<br>
Ehhhh, OK, so Joe Average Android User is not going to have 450
Bibles installed. But as a matter of UI clarity, I'm unconvinced
that reviewing the Description of every single installed Bible is
particularly useful. A control to get that from a displayed Bible,
or from a list of installed Bibles, would be preferable.<br>
