Re: [orca-list] E-Book readers after having taken the plunge



Emacs can read epub books very nicely, but you need to know emacs.

sudo apt install ebook-speaker

It's not a reader in the traditional sense like Calibre or
something else, but it reads said file via TTS.

Hello folks


Well I have now taken the plunge and am writing this E-Mail
from a dual booting system (currently running Ubuntu Mate).


I have been searching the list archives for  accessible  E-Book
readers but have not found anything as yet that I am able to
use. Following the  instructions on the Github page for pPub I
managed to install the script, but am not skilled enough yet in
Python to fix the error about a missing GTK version. I did take
a look at the code (line 22) but cannot see how to add the
required info.


I was wondering therefore, if anyone has any other ideas for
accessible E-Book readers please?


Thank you all as ever for all your help.


Best wishes

James
