At first glance, some of that may be beyond me - I only know a little about *nix systems and tarballs sound like something fearsome! I'll spend some time with Google and searches on this site to see if I think I can cope with it all.

A quick search didn't come up with any help on ;st, but I'll put some time into that when we've another wet day that'll keep me indoors.

Meanwhile I'll get to weeding some books off the Kindle. It turns out I've currently got 1105 on there - lots of those can go!

Thanks once more
Search the full text of the posts made by myself within the past few weeks.
Finding things here (including how to find the 'advanced search') are in the FGA:
https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=237083

Skip that, I found it - in the home page search bar, enter:
;st YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss
the ':ss' is optional, no access to setting the timezone.
the letters should be obvious, I.E:
;st 2016-04-09 07:50
would work for me, now.

Install this updated firmware:

Then consider pushing some of those books to the cloud storage of your Amazon account (upper left of Kindle's screen).

A K5 (a.k.a: KT) on 5.3.7.3 can still be jailbroken, so don't be concerned about losing that.

Each entry on NiLuJe's snapshots page has a link to the subject thread and the first post of the subject thread will always have full directions.

Archive tools such as 7-zip can handle the *.tar.xz format compressed archives.
