Re: [be] bibledit-gtk 4.1 on FreeBSD

[Teus Benschop]

It looks for any of these browsers in the $PATH. If firefox is in that
path, it would take it. There is no way of pointing Bibledit-Gtk at any
browser, it looks for these on their own. The only thing is to put a
binary called 'firefox' in the path.

If the help does not work, the help at bibledit.org, at the Wiki, could
work too. 

To start with it Bibledit, create a new project, and then create books
or import USFM data.
