== Installation notes ==

MacSword downloads from SourceForge for version 1.3.1b1 and above (see links below) is the application only. You can drop the application (once unzipped) anywhere on you hard disk.
The download does not include any modules (bibles, dictionaries, etc.). You need to download them manually from the Crosswire website.
For MacSword special modules (.swd) are available which have to be placed into the folder (if the folder does not exist, please create it first):

/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Sword

In MacSword under Preferences->Module you need to point the Modules location folder to be the folder mentioned above and then restart.
For MacSword version 1.3.1b2 this location is preset and it does not need to be changed. Just place your downloaded modules in the above mentioned folder.
