BibleTime is a KDE program and is integrated with the KDE desktop. You can launch BibleTime from the KDE start menu in the applications group.
BibleTime can also be launched from a terminal command prompt. To launch BibleTime open a terminal (any Xterminal inside a KDE3 session) and type bibletime.
BibleTime can be launched from inside other window managers (like gnome) providing KDE is installed. You will need to install your own icon to launch the program. See the window manager help files to see how.
BibleTime can be used with other window managers such as Gnome, BlackBox, Sawfish, providing KDE3 is already installed on your computer. If you installed KDE3 using the Linux-Mandrake™ 8.x RPM's from a terminal using the mandrake RPM's KDE3 is installed in /opt, so the start up command in a terminal is:
export KDEDIR=/opt/kde3 bibletime
BibleTime will now open inside of a window of the current window manager. If you do not have KDE3 installed in your copy of Linux®, you should have tried the Gnomesword application., or one of the KDE2 versions of BibleTime.
With Linux-Mandrake™ 9.0 and other other distributions where KDE 3.x is installed in the normal location, simply type:
bibletimein any terminal to launch BibleTime.
