Searching in Tischendorf starts with Genesis 1 #20

Closed michaelstalker closed 10 years ago

michaelstalker commented 10 years ago

When I search for a string and I'm using Tischendorf, the text search begins with Genesis 1 and crawls through the entire Old Testament. I don't think Teschendorf has an Old Testament, so I'm not sure what data source the app is searching. At the very least, it would be a nice optimization to begin searching in Matthew 1 for Bibles that only contain a New Testament.

Good point! We're doing that in browserbible-3.

Cool! Are you allowing others to contribute to this project? If so, I might like to work on it some.

johndyer commented 10 years ago

Of course! We'd love more contributors. I've had a few people send things via email, but using git is better.

Let's move it over to the https://github.com/digitalbiblesociety/browserbible-3 project and let me know what you're thinking.

It looks like it's been a few months since any commits have been made on the current version of the app. Are you doing any more active work on this repo, or are you doing all new work and fixes at https://github.com/digitalbiblesociety/browserbible-3?

Hey Michael, I just wanted to thank you for your interest in helping us with inScript. We would value your input, your code and your imagination in making this a better tool for the closed access world to use. inScript is in its third revision now and is looking ready for prime time in the first quarter of 2014. Would you like to be one of our few beta testers?

Hi Ken,

I was looking to help out with the Browser Bible app. I have an M.Div., and have been looking for an opportunity to use my development skills to work with biblical languages. I'm thankful for John's willingness to let me contribute to that app!

Is inScript something that you all have been developing, as well?

-Michael
