The 'library' list is just a list of all the files existing in some folder structure. About the only way to group the books into categories is to put them into different folders (then you can sort by folder name in the library view, in order to see the categories separately).

I'm of two minds as to whether I should build more sophisticated library-management into Freda, since it would mean implementing a database, plus a range of fiddly functions to spot files being added and removed, to keep the database in synch with the folder structure. And all this work would just give me something which is already done by other programs (Calibre on the desktop, WattPad on the handheld). I certainly won't be including it in release 1.1; after that, I guess I'll see whether it's something that lots of users are clamouring for ...

Thanks for using Freda,

Jim
