extensions and themes

BIBLE SOFTWARE:

BibleDesktop1.0.8.pet (39 M)

Description: Bible Desktop is a Bible Study tool that uses the JSword project to read modules in Sword format so there is a huge range of Bibles, Commentaries, Dictionaries, Daily Devotionals and some General Books.

Updated with the latest version of BibleDesktop (1.0.8) and a complete java runtime environment (jre1.6.0_01) that will work with BibleDesktop as well as with your Seamonkey or Firefox Browser. See http://www.crosswire.org/bibledesktop/ for more info.

bibledesktop-decaf.pet (2497 K)

Description: Same as above but no java is included in the package. Also updated with the latest version of BibleDesktop(1.0.8). This one should be used if you already have a working java installed.

GXBible.pet (2497 K)

Description: a very simple script and database that uses gxmessage to display a different Bible verse each time you click the programs Icon. (Updated: now has 80 verses.)

html-bibles.pet (9604 K)

Description: Installs html versions of the World English Bible and the NET Bible on Puppy Linux and adds entries for them under the Documents menu. See http://ebible.org/ and http://net.bible.org/ for more information.

INTERNET
w/ CONTENT FILTERING
:

firefox-thunderbird.pet (25 M)

Description: This is intended to replace the Seamonkey suite with Firefox 2.0.0.7 and Thunderbird 2.0.0.4 as default browser and email. Includes flashplayer and the ProCon Latte content filter extension. (ProCon is a content filter; this is an optional install)

Preferences are preset so that mailto links viewed in Firefox will open Thunderbird and http links in emails viewed in Thunderbird will launch Firefox. Note: this package CAN be uninstalled but the symbolic link: /usr/lib/mozilla  must be deleted and replaced with a new one pointing to the Seamonkey directory in /usr/lib. Gxine depends on this link. Also the Seamonkey, Dillo, etc., files are not automatically removed, just the links.
