I have decided to put my FBReader application and books for it on my CF card. My SD card I will keep for PDF books.
After some initial confusion trying to find the path for the the books it seems to be working fine and is a great improvement for RTF and HTML files. Thank you very much for this Adam.
I think I prefer HTML because it can show the cover image which I now put at the beginning of all my books. I also use class headings and note that each line of these starts on a new page. Is there anything in the settings where I can correct these? Or is it because I create my books in XHTML?
I was very pleased to see an option for UTF-8 encoding which I always use.
Thank you Adam for providing us non-literate Linux users with any easy unbrickable way to experience the FBReader.
