[Faith-talk] Cyber Hymnal

[Linda Mentink]

Hi Bill,

Actually the hymn texts are written as poetry.  I use 
Window-Eyes, and it reads them just fine.  The cyberhymnal name 
has been changed, I think, to something like hymntime.  I think I 
read somewhere that it had been hacked or something.

Blessings,

Linda

Subject: [Faith-talk] Cyber Hymnal

Good afternoon.



I was going through messages on this list from a while back and 
found a
discussion of on line sources from music.



One of the sources that Ashley mentioned was the cyber hymnal 
site, which is
www.cyberhymnal.org.



I tried it out today and it looks good.  I was able to play 
instrumental
versions of several songs and read about the history of the hymns 
and read
the lyrics.  It's a bit of a trick to do this with Jaws while the 
music is
playing, and if I really want to study the lyrics I would 
probably copy them
to Word and study them separately.



One thing that is a bit clunky is the way the on screen text is 
spaced so
that some words and names are split, so it requires a bit of 
exploration
with the cursor.



All in all, not a bad resource, though.



Bill Outman
