Just Added: New Click Interface (GUI) to simplify functionality. Try it! For the Jewish learner of Talmud Bavli, 22Lookup performs searches in Shas, Rashi, Tosfos, Tanach, and some Meforshim. Intuitive usage of Ain Mishpat Ner Mitzvah to bring up Rambam, Tur, Shulchan Aruch, and Smag. Gematria searches of Tanach. DEVELOPMENT STATUS Although more than three years of "spare" time has been devoted to the compilation of 22Lookup, it is still very much a work in progress. Dictionary lookups, incorporation of additional Masechtot to Ain Mishpat Ner Mitzvah, and many new features are still on the drawing board but have not been included in the coding due to time constraints. Nevertheless, it is believed that a sufficient core of features is now manifest and with this array of functions it is hoped that a user base will develop which will itself suggest directions for further growth. DESIGN GOALS For the learner of Talmud Bavli, many times it is desirable to view the complete pasuk and its context rather than the fragment provided in the Blatt. Similarly, viewing an Amud in a different Masechta or searching for a phrase in Rashi or Tosfos is also beneficial. These activities take time and are sometimes not performed due to the intensity of learning. 22Lookup aims to provide maximum return with minimal time investment to assist the learner. A manual is included which is packed with examples in hopes that the user is able to quickly master the man-machine interface and speedily begin reaping benefits.
