Books by Folder, mmm. Will have to try that.

As far as joypad control is concerned, can it be turned off? I prefer the original use of navigating links (up and down) and history (left and right).

Yes, just delete the corresponding JS file from the addons folder, in this case JoypadPageForward.js.

First I tried getting "books by folder" to work without flashing the image, but apparently that doesn't work. Oh well. Will flash now...

It works! That's great news!

My only problem is that at the moment I can't get both books by folders and PRS Customizer optimalizations. I thought a sequence of

1) Copy new_opt to card
2) "Copy image from the card"
3) "Flash the image"
4) "Make a new image"
5) "Flash the image"
would do the trick, but it didn't. I'll try it again now to make sure I didn't make any mistake.

Guys, please note, that it is still work in progress.

Prepak, It won't work with PRSCustomizer until its author updates it. Tell me what features do you miss most and I'll give them higher priority.

Most options provided by PRSCustomizer will be included as configurable options in the near future. (key bindings in particular)

At the moment, user selectable fonts.

I am still trying to combine both PRS Customizer and your Enhancer in one pack. Hopefully it will work.

You need to include my code from applicationStart.xml for it to work.
You can send me the fonts you want it to have and I'll create new_opt.img with them.

I went the other way around - extracting files from your image, comparing them to a PRS Customized image and modifying PRS Customizer files with your updates. In a minute or so I will know if I finally succeeded (the theory was fine all along, I just kept doing stupid mistakes such as copying your changes to a wrong file...).

Hi, can you change the orientation of the screen (when zooming with long-press of zoom button) to go clockwise instead of anticlockwise, so that the buttons come handily for a right-handed person?

Thanks. luv the hack you're making!

Yep. Got it. I have a PRS-Customized Reader with Books By Folder! Will write a how-to in a few minutes.

Meanwhile, a few suggestions/bugreports:

1) I can't get Books by Folder to work on internal memory, even with your standard image. It just won't display any folders. SD card works fine, though.

2) It might be a good idea to place both autorun.js and addons/* to an extra directory. /Sony Reader or /database (since it has to exist anyway) would be a better starting point, IMHO. That way the internal memory will remain uncluttered by unneeded files and folders where they are in full view.

Re: 1): Is it because rootFolder is set to /Data/database/media/books while I keep my books in /books? Will try now.

1) Books by Folder doesn't show the root of the IM, but the /database/media/books. If there are no other cards, the IM is chosen automatically.
2) The current structure is meant only for beta testing and quick updates. I am still not sure what's the best way for the release. Whether I'll keep the js files in IM or include them in /opt etc.

I doubt it's that easy, but will give it a try.

Re 1: Yep. When I fixed the root path, I could read the books in my directory structure.

Will go about writing that guide now.

Also, I will want to publish a guide in Czech language on my blog. Do you mind if I post the updated files there, for those people who are not too familiar with modifying files by hand?
