Thanks, I have enjoyed Rucker's style. Seems like a nice read before the Super Bowl. (Yes, I am one of those that does enjoy [American] football.)

Glad to do it. I know we have a version already here, but I wanted to also have IMP and PRC versions. I'm working on the PRC version via Harry's directions. So it'll be up sometime today.

For a PRC version: http://www.feedbooks.com/discover/mobi/1918
I recommend reading "The Coming Technological Singularity" from Vernor Vinge along "Postsingular": http://www.feedbooks.com/discover/book/2011 It's a very nice essay explaining the concept of the singularity. |

My main issue is time, I barely have enough time to work on every feature that I'd like to add. Is there a good ressource for the syntax of LRS files ? You have to generate LRS and then compile it into a LRF right ? If it looks easy enough for me to add support for LRF, I'll do it next week (for books at least, RSS is another different issue).

You can always get an account at http://www.prslabs.com to see about BBeB. And you can also have a go at looking at the source code for Libprs500. Maybe even use Libprs500 to make the eBooks.
