Thank you for taking the time to try Codex, a full-feature Bible concordance
designed specifically for OS/2 Warp! Well, almost full-featured, anyway.

Our first Christian OS/2 software product was the WordWise Daily Scripture
Calendar. Though it's also available for Windows, NT, DOS, Mac, Linux &
Amiga, we have received proportionally more support from the OS/2 community
than any other. Many of you wanted a true OS/2 concordance, and in a hurry.
You asked and now we're delivering.

This third release, version 0.9, sports an MDI environment, good performance,
and several nice features added as well. It is not up to par with most
Windows programs, though. Several people asked us to release what we had at
the earliest opportunity and then offer frequent updates. This seemed like a
good idea so we decided on that approach.

Version 0.9 was released December 1, 1995. For the whole story, choose the
menu item named "Important!"

To install Codex, just unzip all of the archived files into a directory named
CODEX and run the program. Nothing complicated about that.

While you're at it, why not download WordWise as well? You'll find it at all
the popular OS/2 sites as WW_OS215.ZIP.
