Actually is the beginnings of what will be a fairly long prodject, if decide if I want to follow through. There is going to be a lot of handwork to bring it to completion. In any event I am uploading were I am with it now, and will upload more of it as times goes on.
There has been considerable discussion as to how to arrange the bible for relatively fast and painless access to chapter and verse on the Sony Reader. I recently uploaded a collection of the Books of the bible in BBeB format with the idea that they could be put into a collection on the Reader and thereby gain fairly rapid access to the various books. But it was indeed a kludge and you have maintain some 66 files on your Reader and have to force the load order if you wish to have them appear in the accepted order on your reader.

I also made, and uploaded a file in a rather different version of a PDF file (I confess I reverse engineered the Sony Reader Manuel. This gave me a file which can be be rather quickly navigated from book to book in the Bible. at the time I uploaded it I noted that i had marked the verses so that in the future it might be possible to come up with a version with direct access to the verse level. That file can be found at:

Well... I have come up with a relatively easy way to create the TOC done to the verse level. The question is do we really gain much with such an access method (it adds an entirely new layer to the TOC). So what I have done is to create the Book of Genesis file and incorporated it into a shell that will give you an idea as to just how it might look and work. I have attached the file to this message and would welcome any comment and/or suggestions.
