Uh, well lets say I tap at the top, press home.

Under device I see all the books I have installed, as well as KAUL(with ixtab niluje twobob stepk written beneath it)

So, I press KAUL, brings me to a screen that has
KAUL
KOReader
xQuit

I press KOReader, next screen has, amoung other things, "Start the filemanager", which of course brings me to my folders.(and the books therein)

So, that's what I've got so far...

Thanks.

What more do you want?
Did you just tap a book to open it after all of the above?

Yups, and it works fine. Don't really want anything more. Was just basically wondering if I was doing it right, and whether there was something like a shortcut to the file manager.

I'd hate to find out a year or so from now, that I was doing it all wrong...

Thanks.

No, basically, that's it :-) If you really, really want to save 1 tap, I think KUAL is configurable w/ regard to the menus.

[Rickkins]

No, you know what, it's perfect as it is. I really only read at night, in bed. Took it for a test drive last night... I like it.

Thanks to all for such a wonderful upgrade to my pw experience.

Hehehe.... ok, I figured this out too.
Those are the names of the developers under Kaul, yes...??

I first thought it was some kind of 'linux' language that I couldn't understand... D'oh...

Yes.
You must have "list view" enabled.
In "cover view" the credits are part of the cover.

Yea, I prefer list view type things. Perhaps why I like to work from windows explorer(which I don't actually use, I use xyplorer, but most folks never heard of that so...)

Also, I always use "details" view. ...

I am pretty sure we have a MC build for Kindles, somewhere here.

Hmm...

If you want to modify this idea:

I suppose you could have a KOreader button in place of the Store button.
Maybe, even a KOreader.filemanager button.

Thanks. I'll wait a bit and see if I actually need such a thing, or maybe somebody who knows what they're doing will do such a thing. I'm afraid I'd likely mess it up badly.

Thanks.

Hello,

Is it possible to hide the CJK fonts from the list of fonts shown by KOReader? I found no option on this.

Thank you.

[hawhill]

No. Are you switching between fonts that often that this would be useful for you?
Note that you can set a default font with a long-press on a font. That saves you from making the same selection for each new document.

Not, but it would only make the list less cluttered.

Thank you for the tip. This definitely helps a lot.

I changed the code of koreader to hide the CJK fonts from the list of fonts shown. The modification is clean and minimal. If there is interest I will share.
