Weasel Reader 1.60 Stable

About:
Weasel Reader is an e-text reader for Palm OS. It is geared towards reading
Project Gutenberg e-texts, but will work on any ASCII file. It uses zlib
for compression, resulting in good file sizes, an important consideration
for Palms. Weasel reads both zTXT (its own format) and PalmDoc files. It
includes features such as bookmarks, annotations, categorization,
searching, beaming, VFS access, and many display options. Also included is
makeztxt, a command line program to generate zTXT databases. makeztxt
supports regular expressions to automatically generate a list of
bookmarks. Java and Perl/PHP versions of makeztxt are also available.

Changes:
This release has significant feature enhancements and bugfixes. There is
now full support for Palm OS 5.x and resizable displays. The display code
has been entirely rewritten and no longer puts all devices into black and
white mode. The document index now features a directory browser to make
finding documents easier. The screen rotation code now features an
"armlet" to run at full speed on newer ARM processor devices.

Changes:
Support for the Palm 5-way navigator (i.e. d-pad buttons) was fixed. Keys
may now be remapped to perform user specified actions while reading. There
is also a new "Most Recently Read" list maintained by Weasel Reader to help
frequent users keep tabs on what they are currently reading.
