wrote in B-GREEK about the Bible Windows software.

Apart from the great merits of the program itself, in particular its search
engine in the MT, AGNT, and LXX, there are a number of optional "add-ons"
which I have found enormously helpful.

In the AGNT, with the cursor on a word, a RH mouse click gives the entry for
that word in the Louw-Nida NT lexicon based on semantic domains or in the
Intermediate Liddell and Scott lexicon. The latter can be accessed when in
the LXX.
The same procedure can be invoked in the MT to bring up the Brown, Driver,
and Briggs lexicon. Especially valuable is the "lookup" feature -- how many
times, using the printed BDB, have you found that the entry in which you are
interested carries only " v. ......" and you have had to thumb through the
pages to get to the " v. " word? Well, with the "lookup" feature, you
simply click on " see [v.] word ".

Regards,

Maurice
