SwordSearcher version 5 is out. This is a major new release, with quite a number of improvements. A 30-day evaluation version of the program can be downloaded here, while the new user manual (PDF file) can also be downloaded from this url.

Brandon Staggs has also made available a new tool that allows advanced users to build modules for use with SwordSearcher. It is called Forge, and it is being released as reeware.

As usual, the official press release can be found in the appropriate section of the Bible Software Review Forum.

This update goes well beyond what is usually considered a "point release", and adds some important new features. These include spell-checking, citation preferences, a character palette, and enhanced Construct window.

This upgrade is free for users currently running Accordance version 7, and installers for the different OSes can be downloaded here.
