Tom's eTextReader is a free reader program and available from http://www.fellnersoft.at/eTR.htm. It is a program that lets you read plain text files - e.g. eTexts as provided by Project Gutenberg - in a book-like manner.

[edit] Introduction

eTextReader is a program for Microsoft Windows based PC's. It displays a two page layup of eText that mimics a book. It includes the ability to edit the document, generate TOC, and generate a title page. It can also browse the Project Gutenberg web site and download books.

Window size, font style and font size are selectable; page breaks are inserted automatically. You can set bookmarks, find words or phrases, or edit the text with an internal text editor. A table of contents can be created automatically. Import text from different file types, including RTF and HTML, and open files directly from zip archives. There is also a 'Find text in files' tool, page history as in web browsers
