## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
To read an ebook, just give a filename as argument to `epuppy`.
|
||||
|
||||
Add the option `-s` to store and use a previously stored reading
|
||||
progress.
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes you may be unhappy with the colors. Depending on your
|
||||
terminal style you can enable dark mode with `-D`, light mode is the
|
||||
default. You can also configure custom colors in a config file in
|
||||
`$HOME/.config/epuppy/confit.toml`:
|
||||
|
||||
```toml
|
||||
# color setting for dark mode
|
||||
colordark = {
|
||||
body = "#ffffff",
|
||||
title = "#7cfc00",
|
||||
chapter = "#ffff00"
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
# color setting for light mode
|
||||
colorlight = {
|
||||
body = "#000000",
|
||||
title = "#8470ff",
|
||||
chapter = "#00008b"
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
# always use dark mode
|
||||
dark = true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
There are also cases where your current terminal just doesn't have the
|
||||
capabilites for this stuff. I stumbled upon such a case during an SSH
|
||||
session from my Android phone to a FreeBSD server. For this you can
|
||||
either just disable colors with `-N` or by setting the environment
|
||||
variable `$NO_COLOR` to 1. Or you can just dump the text of the ebook
|
||||
and pipe it to some pager, e.g.:
|
||||
|
||||
```default
|
||||
epuppy -t someebook.epub | less
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
There are also a couple of debug options etc, all options:

||||

|
