  Vade Mecum  
Description: Vade Mecum is a Plucker document viewer for the Pocket PC. It is a complete redesign and rewrite of the original PalmOS version of the viewer, and includes many features that do not exist in the PalmOS version. Some of these new features are: * Annotations * Highlights * Text selection and copying * Variable formatting options (font size, margins, interparagraph spacing, paragraph indentation, etc.) Vade Mecum's primary goal is 100% feature compatibility with the official Plucker viewer, which means it will be able to view any Plucker document that the official viewer can. This project also hopes to support additional file formats, perhaps even rich text and HTML. This project also contributes to the richness of the Pocket PC platform by providing another means of reading eBooks. There are several other eBook readers available for the Pocket PC, including many free ones, but this one is different from them in that it: * reads Plucker documents * Presents documents in a browser-based paradigm ("document-at-a-time") instead of a book-based paradigm ("page-at-a-time"). This means you can scroll down at your own pace to see more text, instead of having to turn a virtual page to read more text. This helps you keep track of your reading context, and also allows for features like scrollbars and autoscrolling. * Repositionable bookmarks: easily change the position in the document that a particular bookmark references.
