I found a symbian application called File Associate which may have done the trick but I could not get it to install on my N86. For some reason the Talks volume reduced so much during the reading of the error message I could not tell what the problem was. So I do not know if it would have worked with Talks if I had managed an install. I am not yet familiar enough with all the flavours of the Symbian OS to tell definitively what will work on my phone.

Hopefully someone smarter and more persistent than me can figure it out and share it with the rest of us. -- Christopher [email protected] > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:talks- > [email protected]] On Behalf Of David Griffith > Sent: Monday, September 20, 2010 4:30 PM > To: 'Talks Mailing List' > Subject: Re: [Talks] daisy-2-go > > The Light Notepad application recommended to me on this list is the > best > application I have come across for reading text files so far, with > all of > its features accessible through Talks as far as I can see. > Actually it may have been you who recommended it! > If I re-open a book talks starts reading from where I left off and the > program has an excellent easy bookmark feature. > > The only downside is that I cannot find anyway for Light Notepad to > become > the default text editor .
