Thanks for doing so. I logged in through the Google Account, and had
read access through the source through gitweb. Thanks. I do remember
that Bibledit was using a lot of memory in particular when running the
whole day. I've now looked at your config.xml.cpp, and have applied to
patch to Bibledit-Gtk. Thanks for stopping the memory leaks.

I did these things, but all windows behave as expected. I still think
that setting the policy of the scrolled window to Automatic : Automatic
makes a different. But perhaps you already have done that.

A link to Bibledit-Lite was put on
https://sites.google.com/site/bibledit/6-links. If you'd like to edit
this information, you are able to do so with your account there.

Wishing you God's blessing in the work you do.

Tried Bibledit-Lite on Windows. It runs nicely, it feels "lite" and
snappy.
