Chinese Union Bible with Direct Verse Jump

Somebody has asked me to make a Kindle version of the Chinese Union Bible with my Direct Verse Jump navigation method. They say this translation is in the public domain, so no worries there.

I do not speak, read, etc. Chinese, so please let me know if the attached file is any good. I obtained the source from the Internet and hope it is what should be.

In order to use it on the Kindle, the Kindle must be hacked to display Chinese characters. I am not sure if this can be done or not (especially, with the new International Kindles). If you get this to work please share.

This same file can be used with the Mobipocket Reader.

If you do not know what the Direct Verse Jump is. You type any verse in the search window in the following format: Book abbreviation, period/dot, chapter number, period/dot, verse number. Note that the verse number is not required (then it defaults to verse 1). You will find all book name abbreviations in the Table of Contents. After you enter this string in the search window you need to press on "Find" *twice*.

For example, "Rev.5.5" would open Revelation/啟 示 錄 5:5.

This file also has a hyperlinked Table of Contents. In addition you can jump from book to book by pressing the joystick right or left.

This is a free book and you can distribute it freely, please do not charge for it. If you wish to give me a donation, PM me.

I have come across the hack that would allow Chinese characters on the Kindle 2 International.
