I am sure there is a reader out there - I just have not spent enough time looking... Mikkel Thank you Mikkel, I couldn't find anything in linux at all. Yet I feel there must be. I guess I'm not looking in the right place. You don't say the name of the programme ? John Sorry about that. The program is called Convert LIT and you can download the source from http://members.lycos.co.uk/hostintheshell/. (The short name will trigger SPAM filters.)
