Introduzione

Xiphos is a Bible study and research tool based upon the "SWORD Project" libraries and the GTK libraries. You can use Xiphos to do the following:

  • View your favorite Scripture verse

  • Make sermon or personal notes on selected passages

  • Automatically follow Bible footnotes and cross-references

  • Compare translations in parallel

  • Work in original language study using the available Hebrew and Greek translations

Xiphos aims to provide a simple and clean user interface while providing a powerful tool allowing a personalized Bible study environment.

"The SWORD Project" is based at http://www.crosswire.org. Other apps under the same banner are MacSword for the Macintosh, BibleDesktop, a Java app, BibleTime (another Linux program), and The SWORD Project for Windows (aka BibleCS or WinSword).

Xiphos is currently in development, so this manual may not reflect the program as you see it. If it does not, please file a bug at the project website, or email xiphos-devel@crosswire.org. All help is appreciated, as it will improve the software.
