CoolReader Hanlin V3

Dave_S · 11-16-2009, 11:30 AM

The file context menu in MadShelf has an option to select the preferred handler for each supported file type, but I only see FBReader as a selection for FB2 or EPUB files. Ticket #454 "Ability to choose default handler for each supported file format" appears to indicate that the issue was closed as fixed in MadShelf 0.2.36 ? Looking through the OpenInkpot system directories, it appears that CoolReader 3 is in the build, but I could not find a way to select it. The User Guide documents CoolREader but does not say how to invoke it, so I just assumed it would be with the MadShelf file context menu. Has anyone found out how to get CoolReader to open the file types that it supports?

From this ticket it looks like the coolreader needs some work done before it's available again (I think that the .desktop file mentioned there is responsible for the appearance in menus, don't know about the rest).
I think they gave us the possibity to choose, but only one option to choose from, at least for the time being. Unless I missed something, of course.

Thank you!!!!!
I missed that when I went searching through the tickets. From ticket #455 it looks like it will not be available until the 0.3 timeframe.

I did notice that the .desktop file was missing, but I could not find out why since I missed that ticket.

I too hope it'll be rather sooner than later, I could use some dictionaries again.
