Changelog
v1.4
- New viewing mode. This is the 'reader' mode. More on that later.
- D-pad now pans the screen. I got alot of requests for this one!
- File browser is now filtered; will only show PDF files. Note that it will show folders that don't have PDF files in them.
- You can now adjust the backlit brightness by holding down Select + Up/Down arrows.
- You can now cancel out of the file browser with 'B', or by clicking the file browser button again.
- Rendering is getting progressively faster.
- Mini-help screen and info screen on startup.
- Added splash screen. If you find this annoying, remove the splash files in the FONTS folder, and it will bypass this step.
- Fonts are external now. This gives us alot more memory to play with at the expense of higher load times on certain PDF's. (Note: I took out the dingbats font. If anyone as a PDF that has dingbats, I will hand out that file too... It is much larger though).
