I will check residuary not translated terms with google translator and include your French localization for CR3.

As for better way to launch CR3 in K4 NT (kite, but it's beta version, I think)
kite application launcher You will see (with kite usage) CR3 as a book in your Kindle's books list.

+1 for me!

JustAMan, silver18, sorry but now Kindle 4 Touch is not supported in CR3. I can not say when it would be supported in nearest time.
Now have just begun limited support for Kindle 4 NT. Development of a virtual keyboard in progress ..

Suggestions that fau just will not do:

Spoiler:

1. In the file browser: remove cycle in the file list.
2. Profiles (settings) and the ability to switch (there are a partial solution in the FAQ)
3. Remove the settings of remapping the keyboard paging, top - forward, lower - back.
4. By turning the screen, rotate, and all the controls, menus, settings, table of contents (partially solved, see FAQ)
Five. Russian TtS (reading out loud)
6. Move status bar down
7. Increase the size of indenting the choice at the edges. Limited number of indentation engine Cool Reader 'a. Available values: -8, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 20, 25, 30, 50, 60, 80, 100, 130

Suggestions that MAY be implemented:

Spoiler:

1. In the file browser: added ability to display the author \ title of the book, rather than the file name (required optional)
2. Search in Russian, by calling the virtual keyboard.
3. Notes
3.1. I would like to be able to read files, notes (if they appear), go to the book.
4. Quotes
5. Working with dictionaries
6. In the file browser: ability to delete \ create and rename \ move folder \ book.
6.1 In the file browser: Key_Right call properties of the selected book, and if implemented, paragraph 6., It can be hung on her menu editing (rename, move, delete, properties)
7. Mode selection screen refresh in Duokan 'e.
8. Make a booklist (playlist). Read more here
9. Following links (not footnotes) in fbKindle, and even better demonstration of the links below the page as footnotes.
10. In the file browser: show the percentage of reading the book.
11. Boot screen with the number CREngine, replace the logo Cool Reader, for example, this or this
12. Auto moving pages
13. "Scroll" long file names in file browser, the content, the list of last opened books, by pointing the cursor on them.
14. Add to Menu Help
15. Make a map of the drop-down list in the menu (choice of font, etc.), an underscore, as in the file browser.
16. In the list of recent books: add a label format (fb2, txt, etc.) Otherwise, when you open the archive, it is not clear what kind of format.
17. In the list of recent books: Add ability to set the font size for titles separately and individually for the rest (or the difference in size). Also be able to disable the fat content for the title.
18. A separate set font properties for the book.
19. If you change the font settings in his sample (Eat more of these soft French buns!) There are artifacts that would be good to update the background around the sample.
20. Maintain information on the book readable without departing from the Cool Reader. For example, when you turn off Kindle slider (at the bottom) or after a certain interval of time (preferably adjustable)
21. In the properties of the document: return to map the time of the book (the current page / total pages), chapter title, the level of charge
22. In the file browser: show the size of the file.
23. In the content, add the line: "Current page xxx of yyy" (as in LBook)
24. Add \ add the following commands in keydefs.ini:
CMD_ZOOM_FONT and CMD_ZOOM_HEADER_FONT - add the ability to stand as a parameter to a specific font size, in addition to ± 1
DCMD_BOOKMARK_SAVE - bookmark
DCMD_BOOKMARK_GO - call the bookmark menu
MCMD_SWITCH_TO_RECENT_BOOK - switch to the previous book (you can easily switch between the two books - great for bilingual reading).
25. Individual settings hotkeys (in keymaps.ini) for the landscape orientation (separately for 90 and -90 degrees)
26. Virtual keyboard (required for K4 NT and desirable to locate on the K3).
27. Analogues launchpad at K4 NT there is no way to turn the program over this, as well as the closing feature, this feature must be added to the menu.
28. Add hinting settings in the options menu of the program.
29. Add a tab "setup sheets" in the setup program, as in recent versions of Cool Reader on your computer.

No problem, just keep in mind that we KTouch users await CoolReader, too
So when you're done with K4NT please try KT, too
