Yeah Tony, I wish we had at least the tools to create books for The Message.

Actually David wrote The Message and then MyBible for the Palm. I believe he
licensed it to Laridian iirc when I spoke to them (Laridian) about it. I
think he still devs it still but I can say for sure.

Well Good Luck on that one. I'm not too hopeful in that endeavor, but I'm
praying for a glimmer of hope here because it's such a nice program.
Laridian says he's tough to reach, but reachable by them for their stuff.
Our interests is a bit more bleak inho. Oh, I've tried in the past and I
purchased a license of the NIV version of The Message personally from him
for $20 and when I lost the files after a crash I don't think he was able to
help me out with that :( iirc.

God bless,
