Currently the 0 thru 9 buttons only navigate by % thru a book that is currently open. They only "navigate" on the meta-menus.

The Table of Contents (a meta-menu) can be navigated with the 0-9 keys but does not appear to have multiple levels which is what's going to be required for my scheme to work. That would probably be the best place to modify the software.

Example.......

TOC first page

1key Gen Exo Lev Num Deu
2key Josh Judg Ruth 1Sam 2Sam 1Kng 2Kng
etc

Hit the 1key and you get a TOC second page

1key Gen
2key Exo
3key Lev
etc

Hit the 2key and you get a TOC third page

1key Ch 1-9
2key Ch 10-19
3key Ch 20-29
4key Ch 30-39
etc

Anyway you get the drift. Since the reader remembers keystrokes even though it hasn't updated the page you could get pretty good at getting somewhere with a 4-2-5-8 (hypothetical example) set of keystrokes taking you all the way to the chapter level.

Of course a better solution would be to have a USB keyboard and a search function
