- 3 Side-by-Side Comparison of Notable SWORD Front-end Applications
Introduction
This page needs to be maintained to give fair coverage of the SWORD front-end programs.
Do feel free to edit this page to make it more complete and better organized.
The purpose of this page is to help an end user decide which SWORD front-end program is the best for them. The first consideration is which programs are available for the user. This can be found at CrossWire's home page. Once the user has narrowed down which programs are available, the following can be used to focus on the best program.
It is recommended that each user try all the available programs. It is likely that one will resonate with the user and work best for that user.
As this page is oriented to program features, it does not distinguish whether the underlying engine is SWORD or JSword.
Some applications have a different CrossWire development code name than the public name.
Features Common to All SWORD Front-end Applications
Most SWORD Front-end programs have these features:
- Uses Unicode (though some front-ends don't yet support 5.0 or later)
- Released under an open source license
- Powerful search syntax - wildcard, regex and often also clucene indexed searches (fuzzy and proximity searches + searches for Strong's, stemming etc) within preset and customized scopes.
- Strong's, morphological info, cross references and footnotes
- All front-ends listed below are undergoing more or less active development.
- Verse and block layout
- Image support in all types of modules
- Localization - all front-ends are designed to be readily translatable. Many are translated in various languages.
Side-by-Side Comparison of Notable SWORD Front-end Applications
- This is a work in progress.
Legends
To keep the lists below compact, the SWORD programs are identified by abbreviations. Here is an explanation of each of them:
- ABS — Alkitab Bible Study based on JSword, uses Java 5+
- BD — BibleDesktop based on JSword, uses Java 1.4.2+
- BT — BibleTime uses cross-platform Qt toolkit
- BPB — BPBible uses wxPython
- FB — FireBible based on JSword, runs in FireFox as an extension
- MS — MacSword series 1
- MS2 — MacSword 2.0 released 2009-10-12
- PS — PocketSword v1.2.0 released 2010-03-21
- SPW — The SWORD Project for Windows
- SB — SwordBible
- Xi — Xiphos (formerly GnomeSword)
- A blank entry means that it is unknown whether a feature is present. Footnotes are automatically numbered.

| Can be installed to run from USB drive | no | yes[6] | no | yes[7] | yes[8] | yes[9] | yes[9] | no | yes[10] | no | no |
- ↑ Not Win9x
- ↑ 2.0 2.1 2.2 Pre-alpha
- ↑ Version 1.3.x
- ↑ 4.0 4.1 Version 1.4.x
- ↑ BSD. Solaris cannot be supported at this time because its library support is crippled with respect to the required build tools.
- ↑ Portable both in the sense that it can be carried in ones pocket and in the sense that it runs on Windows, Mac or Linux, requiring nothing from the host computer and leaving no trace on it.
- ↑ PortableApps.com edition for Windows only. Leaves no trace on host computer.
- ↑ Using Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition from PortableApps.com, for Windows only, but depends on a local installation of Java. Leaves no trace on host computer. Other platforms are possible.
- ↑ 9.0 9.1 Leaves traces on host computer.
- ↑ Temporarily install to a computer and then copy the "C:\Program Files\CrossWire\The SWORD Project" folder to the USB drive. Finally, uninstall it and delete install directory. Leaves no traces on host computer.
