The question was posted in another thread, but I think it is more on-topic here.
Another solution is to change the port of FBReader so that it is visible in the taskbar of the popupmenu :-)
The current alternative is to start the last document manually, when you have enabled the option to show the 'Recent Files' folder at start-up, this would not take that much time.

I just told my 'guinea pigs' that I wanted to put further development of the patch on-hold until the new firmware for the DR1000 is available and see what is still needed. The main reasons to add the auto-start is because start-up takes such a long time and it is very hard to go quickly to the last read document. The firmware for the DR800 seems to have a solution for both. You can expect one addition within one or two weeks, that (optionally) also creates a short-cut to the folder of all opened documents in the Recent-folder.
