Hi!
I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions as to what image viewer i should use to go through multiple jpg files quickly. Should be able to move around the image, zoom, and proceed to the next pic (preferably without using the stylus) Thanks!  /Jesper |

Also using qpdf2 to view comics converted to PDFs, although that wants to use the stylus ... what would be really nice, of course, would be a port of CDisplay to the Z. As is it's only built for Windows. So: Using OpenOffice.org, edit your raw .jpg or .gif images into an HTML page or a PDF document. Convert the HTML using Mobipocket Publisher or perhaps Plucker to a file the Z will read ... or you could even use the Opera browser on the Z to view the HTML page, I suppose. Haven't tried that yet!

You can set it up to do a slide show. edit: Just noticed something... I'm not sure what you mean by, "move around the image??? |

I have tried tkcGallery, but it doesnt "move around the image". What I mean is that I cant pan around using the directional pad. This is usefull because to read the comic i need to zoom in relatively much, and then I need to "strafe" around to get to the next "frame" Thanks!

I'm also interested in a comics viewer for the zaurus. Ideally it would also read from a cbz/cbr file too... As you're probably aware, there are a bunch of them for linux, but they all have some relatively heavyweight dependencies... |

Hi!
I don't know if you've found a good comic book reader. I myself use comix on my linux desktop. It's a python/sdl based comic book reader that works on images and archived images (tar/rar/zip/cbr). It should be easy enough to use on the Zaurus, but i just could not find all the needed packages on openzaurus.org  (
