Getting started with EBookReader
- Download the .xo bundle from https://doc-0k-38-docs.googleusercontent.com/docs/securesc/ha0ro937gcuc7l7deffksulhg5h7mbp1/d4fucc4ck3ghudnna49kf1sqjtj0i8jf/1374861600000/14413452762395225907/*/0B7AGc0Q4gxldZTJnOUtHTmdrU0k?h=16653014193614665626&e=download, and copy it to a pen-drive.
- Insert the pen-drive into a XO, running "Sugar" environment, based on GTK3.
- Navigate to the pen-drive menu, and click the "EBookReader-1.xo" bundle.
- Voila.. the activity is installed and launched. Time to play with it :)
- Now, a PDF or a EPUB file can also be opened directly via "Open With EBookReader" (or imported via the "My Library" tab).
Modifying book-servers configuration
- Ensure that the "EBookReader" activity is not opened.
- Open "Terminal" activity.
- Open the file "/home/olpc/Activities/EBookReader.activity/GetBooksActivity/get-books.cfg".
- Here, the servers-configuration can be managed. As a simple test, try removing one of the pre-configured "Feedbooks" or "Internet Archive". When the application is next launched, only the corresponding servers (present in "get-books.cfg") will be available for the books to be searched from.
