Hi, I am an appreciative user of the Calibre e-book manager. It does have a basic e-book reader/viewer, with keyboard shortcuts for page-forward, etc. However it doesn't have the ability to highlight, much less to place a cursor, highlight, and copy text, and take notes alongside the text (all using the keyboard).

Does anyone know whether there is a reader that can do these things? I know Kindle does much of this but not with keyboard shortcuts.

It occurred to me that since Calibre is open-source, it should in principle be possible to take the existing viewer software and develop these functions. Can anyone advise on how big a job this is? Is it the kind of thing that one could perhaps raise the money to pay a developer to do, so that it is available to any who might want this?

With thanks, Will
