[bd-users] New Release of Bible Desktop

[Mark Puckett]

DM,

Congratulations on this release!  Much improved interface with the 
parallel (even selectable in maximum number - nice!) and the quick 
selecting of book and chapter.  Also, the work on the manual is appreciated!

Thank you!

Grace and peace,

Mark
