Accordance Bible Software Releases Major Upgrade, Universal Binary

1511 OakTree Software, Inc. has announced the release of Accordance 8, a major upgrade to its market-leading Macintosh Bible study software. Accordance 8 now offers native Intel support along with new search capabilities, display options, and interface enhancements.

"We're very pleased to offer Accordance in a Universal Binary," explains David Lang, OakTree's Vice President of Development. "We used the Intel transition as a strategic opportunity to make sweeping improvements to the Accordance codebase, which has been in continuous development since the early nineties. Not only is Accordance now Intel-native, it's well-positioned to adapt to the future of Mac OS X."

In addition to Universal compatibility, new features of Accordance 8 include:

• A new Library window for finding, organizing, and opening Bible texts, commentaries, and other study aids.

• The ability to drag the mouse over an English word to highlight the original Greek or Hebrew word it translates.

• The ability to search for literary connections between different books of the Bible, or even separate texts such as the Bible and the Dead Sea Scrolls.

• Text display options for changing the window background, using custom colors, and adjusting the leading.

• The ability to create and search custom workspaces.

• Numerous improvements to user notes, color highlighting, 3D maps, grammatical searching, and more.

Accordance 8 can be purchased as a download for $49. The cost to upgrade from Accordance 7 is $39. The Accordance program can be used in conjunction with a free downloadable package of Bibles and study aids, or with larger packages delivered on CD.
