I have no argument that, and I gave that some thot. But figured on a little 5" screen, would it really make that big of a difference? It would certainly be more readable than line breaks every line and a half. On top of that, one of the books (don't remember which) there were original paragraphs that were almost a full page long. I'd certainly find that more tedious to read than a paragraph for each sentence.

Like you already said, its the content that counts. And its not like anyone else is going to see it. I wouldn't do it to a (copywrite-free) book I was going to post somewhere.

I actually ended up going to Gutenberg to find the .txt books in epub and downloaded them after 3 long and tedious efforts to convert .txt files. This ebook thing is all new and shiny for me, so I probably shouldn't have posted like I knew what I was talking about. But for future use when there is no other choice, I now have the methods of Mores and Jellby noted for future reference.

That's what I like about this forum. The folks are (almost) always nice and polite even when they are typing with one hand and scratching their head with the other.

Thanks.
