Hi Noah,

Good to meet you. I use the Digital Pali Reader all the time and it's an excellent product. Thank you very much for the work you did putting it together. I am currently using version 4 (which still has some software bugs). Is there anything more recent available? The biggest problem I find is that when you do a search and go to the searched item, the "hand" translator doesn't work, so you have to exit the text and re-enter in order to re-initialize it. And sometimes (quite often, actually) the parser doesn't work on compounds - but I can see why that would be the case, as some of them are quite difficult.

However, these are minor points. The DPR is an excellent product and it makes things quite a bit easier for me.

Plus, as you point out (I had never looked until you mentioned it) Mog, Kac and Sd are all there.

Once again, thanks for this excellent piece of software,

Warm regards,

Bryan

I've included most (or all, I can't remember) of the grammar texts from
tipitaka.org on the Digital Pali Reader if you are interested; the DPR
allows you to search all or one of the texts, which might be of use:

Best wishes,
