Toms eTextReader - FREEWARE - This software enables one to read plain text files (e.g. eBooks as provided by the Project Gutenberg) in a book-like manner. Window size, font style and font size are selectable; page breaks are inserted automatically. You can set bookmarks and search for character strings. A simple text editor is also included.
