Polite request for Ebook reader

[malbri]

Hi, Would it be possible to ask for FBReader (http://www.fbreader.org/) to be added to the package list, or any other that auto bookmarks a ebook when closing.

Thank You
mal

Hi malbri and welcome

Is that any different than what evince does? The next time you open a file, it will be opened at the same page you had when you closed it.

FBreader is made for the Android platform - why would you want it in Salix?
