Hi James, The book is great. You know, it was a inspiration to work in Read, GetBooks and Pathagar. I will do only a few comments:
Chapter "Sugar Activities For Finding E-Books" When you say: Use the *Terminal Activity* and become the root user. In the directory where your Activity is installed, generally named * ~/Activities/GetBooks.activity*, you'll find a file named *get-books.cfg*. As root, make a copy of this file in the */etc* directory. Anything you put in this file will override what was in the original *get-books.cfg* file. (If you do not have root access, you could also modify the original file in *~/Activities*, but modifying the copy in */etc* makes it easy to undo your work and go back to the default, and when you install a new version of *Get Books* your configuration changes will not be lost). I think would be good add anything like: "If you can't become root, you can modify the file get-books.cfg in the *~/Activities/GetBooks.activity directory anyway." I think this is important because there are deployments where the users can't be root by security reasons. Chapter "The Read Activity" * When you say: The dropdown control is for PDFs that have a table of contents that lets you skip to a chapter. Very few PDFs have this, and PDFs from Feedbooks for example do not have them.* I must say the dropdown controls is actually for EPUB files, the Read activity actually do not support display the table of contents of PDF files. I agree with you, we can do the Sugar a great place for readers and writers. Regards Gonzalo *
