Jellby's bash script here can be used to read ePubs on your web browser on linux. I prefer that to Calibre's viewer, which has never quite worked perfectly for me.
All that's missing is support for DRMed ePubs.
I'm not sure I understand your points about Sigil and Calibre. You can run the calibre viewer without running the library software. In fact, I almost never run the library thingy. I haven't used Sigil, but I doubt the editing features add much to how much is going into memory. |
