I am watching from the sidelines right now hoping that someone will come up with a package for this.

A couple of questions; Will FBReader just take all sorts of html files without having to go through the manipulation of an xml file like you have to do with the iRex viewer? Will it display multiple pages, or does it have to be all one page? Will links and/or drop down select boxes work?

Another question is does FBReader have the option of inserting a line between paragraphs? I have noticed in the illustrations that it indents are the only thing differentiating paragraphs. ( I just visited the FBReader page - it appears that you can set different formatting parameters - does that function work in this porting?)

On a side note, though I have not tried the iRex companion software from what I see it does not have any availability of automatically formatting documents for best viewing on the iLiad. I was hoping that would be a possible function and it certainly would have made things much easier for the laity.

To all, keep up the good work!
