Hello,
I remember this topic to be discussed many years ago, but, perhaps, there are some news about which I have missed. I wonder if there is a way of convenient reading of e-text in Linux console. I know that you can use editors VIM or Emacs, which both have read only mode and ability to place bookmarks in the texts. But it would be nice if we had a simple app with the following features: 1. Possibility of reading long texts with Braille device just by pressing panning buttons without a need to go to the next or previous page when we reach the bottom or top of screen. 2. Ability to automatically save last reading position so that we could easily resume reading of the last book. Ideally it would be great if we could have it for a number of file we open with such utility. 3. Ability to place bookmarks for the particular book so that we could later go to the place we saved. 4. Simple searching capability. Since BRLTTY has built in help capability which allows reading with panning buttons I suspect that such an app may be possible. If there is no separate solution, then maybe it would be possible to add this feature in BRLTTY itself? С уважением Сергей Флейтин With best regards Sergei Fleytin
