Book Titles in Hebrew/Greek

When using Logos, my keyboard is almost exclusively set to Hebrew font. I search for Hebrew and Aramaic words frequently in Bibles or in lexicons. However, I constantly have to switch back to English for only one thing: To enter a Bible reference. It would be nice to type in "איוב 2", and have all my linked Bibles turn to Job 2.

This isn't a big problem, but it seems like it would be easy to add.

    You could use the Logos Biblical Language keyboards and set up your computer to change with keyboard key combinations.  I use <lft_alt-shft-1> for English, <lft_alt-shft-2> for Greek and <lft_alt-shft-3> for Hebrew with <lft_alt-shft-4> for Syriac.

    It will be possible when Logos adds a Hebrew UI: Help translate Logos 5 into another language! Of course, that would turn all your menus and things into Hebrew as well.[:)]

    You could use the TOC, if that is easier.

    Thank you George, that's similar to the system that I currently use with Windows languages. It would still be nice to be able enter the book names in Hebrew when using the Hebrew Bible. I tend to think of the Hebrew names first and sometimes type them in Hebrew before realizing Logos doesn't recognize it. Not a big deal, but it would be nice.

    fgh: I'd totally be down for an all-Hebrew Logos! Looking forward to it!
