In case you've been living under a rock: FBReader is an e-book reader for Linux/Windows XP computers.

Changes since the last FBReader for iLiad port:
* Close FBReader with Upper Left (Home) Hardware Button
* Better screen refreshes
* Added "Go To Next/Previous Toc Section" actions. (Next Section Via Button on Toolbar. Should be setup to use up/down hardware buttons as well) This is very useful for CHM Files and documents with a table of contents
* Hardware Buttons are configurable via settings screen
* Opening of external http/ftp/mail links in external browser has been added. (should work with dillo)
* OpenReader book format has been supported.
* New encodings (Vietnamese, Korean, MacRoman, etc.) has been supported.
* Time and position text on indicator
* FBReader reads multi-body fb2 documents.


Standalone Installation

The first time you click the icon, it will automatically copy some iLiad specific settings to the /home/root/ directory, and launch the program.

For Compact Flash (CF) Users, Download: http://projects.mobileread.com/iliad...andalonecf.zip

The 'fbread' folder will need to be put in the root of your memory card. Simply unzip, run, and enjoy.

For a more native approach that will launch files directly from the contentlister, see this wiki page: https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/ILia...e_Installation
