If you have time for a crash course, what do I do from there ? Do I have to rebuilt the whole system with this change ?
I did noticed that the viewer.js is in the Calibre folder on my PC. Is there a way to make a change from there ? In short, what is the fastest way to apply the change ? Can I just "patch" something somewhere ?

Thanks,

Run calibre from source. Make required changes then restart calibre. Loop as needed. I use Eclipse + pydev do do my changes, but a lot of people use other tools. Which depends on the OS you run.

When happy you can create a calibre release, but that is way way way more work. Just keep running from source, accepting new changes from Kovid as you wish.

I have no idea how you would "patch" released calibre to accomplish this. Personally I wouldn't try. I run from source 100% of the time.
