DOWNLOAD DATABANK AND PROGRAM

As of May 2019 some updates and improvements were made:

No longer need to increase processor speed in DOSBox, it will work fine in 3000 Hz as default.

English fields will record apostrophe.

The Word List will not be called Dictionary in this new version.  This is just a change of name, No functionality or information will be lost!

Transliteration can be turned off, once you learn it, it is unnecessary and won't help.

Menus are less cluttered with 3 languages, only display 2 almost all of them.

In games coincide letters can now randomize.

You can also type transliteration or spelling answers, keyboard arrows and mouse still work, this should help more with you advance.

Allows you to practice spelling of English or Spanish if you are interested.

New keyboard 10 finger typing speed/training game.

May 31 a bug in Hebrew/English game display was fixed.

In spelling and transliteration case don't matter no more.

June 10 when DataBank information was shown in Table Mode the Word List ended the program in a error message that was an error itself.  It's fixed.

As of July 2020 there were significant improvements:

The searched strings are highlighted, in the Text Document as well in the Word List.

The 10 finger typing practice game was removed and a new feature in the text editor in the Selected Text option allows practice.  Seems better.

In that same Selected Text option a new option was added: Find And Select.  The words in the selected text will be searched and selected in Word List.

The Coincide Many Words Game processes typing:  As you type the characters will highlight narrowing your search of words to match.

We removed Serif and Bold fonts from the font menu and replaced them with Rashi and Script fonts.

July 29, 2020 bug fixes:

When Find and Select have too many words, overflowed the List in the Help for Word Lists if set, it's fixed.

When coinciding many words, as the list diminishes typing search stopped working, it's fixed.

Spelling was placing undefined characters in the word to spell, it's fixed.

What's new by October 14, 2020:

We separated Lessons 1 through 5 to have 2 parts, one for learning and other for testing:

The learning part presents letters alphabetical while the test part shuffles them.

Some errors in the Typing practice option of the Selected text option were fixed:

The cursor wasn't following when the selected text was bigger or out of the visible text.

THE DOWNLOAD IS AVAILABLE AGAIN.  Aleph, Hei, Chet, Ayin and Reish with dageshes were eliminated.

Doubling for dagesh forte is accomplished.  New characters can be stored in Hebrew fields: ~ " ! ' - and /.

Other improvements need working, but wanted to make it available again.  Thanks for visiting.

Apologies for the inconvenience.

November 30

Due to changes in the Transliteration algorithm many things needed updating, finally it is done.

An internal change in the memory organization of the Games reducing from three layers of abstraction to just two took long.

This change facilitated the new Transliteration algorithm at doubling by dagesh forte in the Games section.  Define transliteration is updated too.

Spelling of Spanish or English didn't display the word to be spelled correctly.  It's fixed.

Shift-Left or Right were not hastening movement on longer than screen words.

Nikudot was displayed in spelling even when it was set to not to be spelled.

Paste with [Ctrl]+[V] was making all letters capitals.  Transliteration with clues and no nikud was misplacing clues.
