This is a modified version of the Ebook Reader v1.92 by the TI Chess Team.

I recently purchased a Voyage 200 (basically the same as a TI-92+ with more memory and a clock), and noticed that the font from the Ebook reader by the TI-Chess Team was quite small in proportion to the size of the screen.  For my TI-89 the 4x6 font worked great, but for the larger screen of the TI-92+/Voyage 200 a 6x8 font seemed like a useful option.  So since Thomas Nussbaumer and the TI-Chess team chose to make the program open source, I decided why not add the ability to compile using 6x8 font.

This version which is named Ebook Reader v1.93 uses 6x8 font.  Included is the source code which can easily be compiled for 4x6 font or 6x8 font by just commenting out the line "#define USE_FONT6x8".

I hope everyone enjoy's this release and also that the TI-Chess team may take a look at the source code changes and possibly incorporate the 6x8 font option into their release for the TI-92.

Just send the ebook.9xz file to your TI-92+ or TI-Voyage 200 to enjoy the larger font without any downside. Enjoy :)




This modified release thanks to Jsolman.

The Ebook Reader is part of the TIGCC Tools Suite created by the TI-Chess Team.  They deserve the credit for the application, I just modified a few lines to allow for viewing in 6x8 font.  I very much appreciate the applications by Thomas Nussbaumer and the TI-Chess Team.  Thanks for all the nice apps.



Unrelated Side Note:
It seems quite a few TI-92+ asm progs that use compression support give an error when executed on the Voyage 200 and also leak ram.  The only way I have found to recover the ram leaked when running one of those such programs that has a problem with the Voyage 200 is to reset all memory.

TI-Mahjongg is one such program that gives an error and leaks ram on the TI-Voyage 200.

I was happy that the TI-Chess release didn't have this problem on the Voyage 200.  I will probably try recompiling Mahjongg to make sure Voyage 200 support was defined during the compile.
