Introduction
KOReader is a document viewer for eink devices. The formats it supports include PDF, DjVu, XPS, CBZ, FB2, PDB, TXT, HTML, RTF, CHM, EPUB, DOC, MOBI, and ZIP files.
KOReader is rewritten from kindlepdfviewer, which is originally built by hawhill based on the mupdf source. Since then it has come a long way, based on requests and updates by hackers around the world.
There are related discussion threads on the MobileRead Forums, one of the largest English language web forums for e-book reading/publishing:
For a more thorough division for different devices please take a look at NiLuJe's builds. Here, for instance, you will find KOReader for non-touch Kindles among others too! (weekly-ish builds, not tied to any stable/nightly tag. The device separation stems from the custom, highly device-specific toolchains used).
