This allows you to open multiple Wikipedia dumps at once.

Limitations:
Only working with FW 4.3.9084 or 3.19.5761.
You are losing automatic Wifi connection in the browser.
Search only possible in browser.
Installed it on Kobo Glo HD, FW3.19.5761.
However, when entering host or 127.0.0.1 or localhost in the browser nothing happens. There also is no logfile in /wikipedia. I'm using kobo start menu, do I need to add something to KSM to start /.wikipedia/wikipedia.sh?
