Description

 

Remember that PocketScholar is currently in beta, has bugs and is a work in progress.

 

PocketScholar initially installs three card decks in the database when you install the program.

  1. The Greek card deck that coincides with Dr. Mounce's The Basics of Biblical Greek. This card deck is linked to Dr. Mounce's audio files.

  2. The Hebrew card deck that coincides with The Basics of Biblical Hebrew.

  3. A card deck with every word in the Greek New Testament (thanks Mike Turner)

You can add card decks to the PocketScholar database by using the Converter utility. Use it to create CSV files from MiniFlash Palm databases and import the CSV files into PocketScholar.

 

Warning: The install program for PocketScholar will overwrite your current database. If you have made modifications to the database, you will need to 1) export the card deck that was modified, or 2) backup the entire PocketScholar database. You can find the PocketScholar database in the application directory on your Pocket PC under the "Program Files\PocketScholar" directory. The database file which is called "pocketscholar.db" can be copied and restored after a newer version of PocketScholar has been installed.

Dr. Mounce's Audio Files
