Welcome!

A new version of the iSilo scriptures has been developed. The new version utilizes external document linking technology. This allows the scriptures and other documents to be modular and be able to link with each other. Early testing results indicate that iSilo 4.3 or higher is needed for the external document linking to work properly.

With the scripture files compiled, the next step is to develop a library of compatible church publications. The process of converting HTML content from lds.org is now simpler with the SetWingetLinks utility. For more information on how to use this utility, click on the tools button on the left.

Brother Michael Cole and Brother Shadel, service missionaries developing content at lds.org, have developed and emailed me a copy of a program which will download approximately 60 online curriculum publications from lds.org. The utility automatically modifies the scripture references so they link to the iSilo scriptures. The utility requires Sun's Java Development Kit to be installed. I am currently downloading and compiling the curriculum with this utility. Check back frequently as the number of ebooks is going to increase rapidly in the coming weeks.

It is kindly requested, but not required, that if you find the ebooks on this site to be useful, please consider making a donation. I have been developing the scriptures for many handhelds since 2002 and have made them available to the public at no cost. I wish to emphasize that I do not feel good about charging money for church ebooks. All procedes from the donations will be strictly used to cover development and web site operation costs (Internet hosting, developing tools, etc.). To make a donation, please click on the donation button on the lower left side of the screen. Your support is greatly appreciated!

Best regards,

David Winget
