[Purebiblesearch-release] PureBibleSearch.com website updates

[Pure B. S. R. N. L. <pur...@li...>]

To All King James Pure Bible Search Users:

I spent a fair amount of the day updating the main http://www.PureBibleSearch.com/ website and made the following enhancements:

1) Added links to the Mobile Device JavaScript-based App Installers for the offline mobile search app that Clayton Carney contributed.  This App is based on KJPBS-inspired search logic and can be loaded onto your Android and/or iOS mobile device, tablets and smartphones, for searching the King James Bible when you're not online with the internet.  He first made these available about a year ago.  My sincere apologies to him for being so slow to get the links posted on the website.  And Thank You Clayton for the hard work you did to make them available!  (https://github.com/claytoncarney)

2) I created individual Portable Drive Zip Files for KJPBS for each operating system, each containing a complete portable copy of KJPBS that can be loaded onto a USB flash drive, or similar device, and used on any computer without actually installing KJPBS on the computer.  They also support launching in "stealth mode", where KJPBS doesn't leave footprints in the system registry for settings (refer to the users manual for details).  These have always been available on the complete ISO disk image, but these separate zip files will make them more readily available for users.

3) The WebChannel KJPBS (http://webchannel.PureBibleSearch.com/) now has the latest Reina-Valera 1865 publishing that fixes some typographical issues and is the one that will soon be available on all Sword-based search software apps.  Also included is the Bible Audio for the New Testament that you can listen to online.  The Reina-Valera 1865 is one of the few Spanish Bibles that is true to the same Textus Receptus and Masoretic vine of scripture as the King James.  Many thanks to the work that Brother Vince LaRue is doing in his ministry work in South America with Ministerios Valera 1865 (https://www.valera1865.org/).

4) The VNC KJPBS (http://vnc.PureBibleSearch.com/) has been updated to also have the Reina-Valera 1865 database and the VNC portal page has been updated to have a custom Captcha script, since Google has retired their former reCaptcha server script and I can't stand their new "pick a picture" version.  Hopefully the new Captcha will also be less annoying than the previous Google reCaptcha.  It doesn't need to be overly secure, just functional enough to keep webbots and spiders from crawling into the VNC portal, as that portal launches additional virtual computer cloud resources when used.

5) Once again the Chaos Monkey made a pass through SourceForge. (https://blog.codinghorror.com/working-with-the-chaos-monkey/)  This time, though, it wasn't the major data system failure they had last time.  But, they decided to move the individual project web page hosting to different computer nodes, but they weren't very careful with the rollout logistics and caused the main PureBibleSearch.com page to be down for several days.  It would have lasted longer, but fortunately, I happened to discover it, and moved it to the same virtual computer system hosting the WebChannel and VNC portals to where it's easier to administer.

In any case, enjoy the updates to http://www.PureBibleSearch.com/!
God Bless,
Donna
