It would be nice to see an option to invert the text/bg colors, or maybe even set them independently.

yea me 2 i placed my text files and ebooks in the folder named books but it still wouldnt load them i just got an error message

reading config........aaaaand..crash!

The readme...which you need to rename to ".txt" says:

"These are commandline tools. You need to open a dosprompt and run them from there. If you dont know how to do that then too bad "

Well first off that's not very "user friendly" of you. Second your crappy batch files crash on XP everytime...and third, the font "tool" dosen't do crap.

Thanks for a whole lot of nothing "Sasq"

CHUCK67 - did you get the program to even boot or did it just crash?

[Dvanburen]

I ran the program that generates the fonts and dropped it on the stick. I've been using it every night to read books Make sure you wipe out any old indexes and configs. Don't know if the old fonts will work.

The readme...which you need to rename to ".txt"

This is fairly common practice, especially in the Unix/Linux community. All you have to do is double click and choose your fav. text editor.
