I wonder if someone with Linux knowledge could answer this question?

I believe the Hacked AdobeViewer.app, which allows us to customise fonts for EPUBs, does so with a minor string edit where

Code:

res:///adobe/pxf/userStyle.css

is changed to

Code:

res:///mnt/ext1/userStyle1.css

i.e file userStyle1.css in the root dir of main memory.

Please correct me if I've got this wrong, but in the new firmware v15.3 it looks as though

Code:

res:///adobe/pxf/userStyle.css

has become

Code:

res:///userStyle.css

With such a short path/filename, is it ever going to be possible to hack it to one which is user accessible? It's my understanding that you have to keep the number of characters constant.

I really hope I'm wrong
