Hi!

Thanks for the input.  I like books in txt or brf too.  I guess I'll use
all the ways equally eventually.  

?thanks for writing!

Hello,

There are other possibilities for reading bookshare books once they are
unpacked.

Although use of the Daisy player is the usual path, you can often
download books as a grade 2 brf file; and once the book is unpacked, you
can move it to a preferred folder.

In addition, the unpacking utility may allow you to unpack the book as
an HTML file; and once this is done, you can move the book to a
preferred folder.  However, I've found that books can take forever to
load in the browser, so converting it to a text (.tx) file makes for
faster reading. It's true that you've lost the ability to navigate
easily, but I've never missed this feature.

a book.  When I'm downloading one, it goes into the download folder, but
when I opt for a different folder that already exists to put the book
in, I am informed that "that folder already exists" and am asked what
folder to unpack book.

explore that avenue as I need to.
