About
Murasaki is an EPUB reader app featuring a simple user interface and various functions. (Note: It cannot open DRM-encrypted EPUB files.)
Key Features:
Scrolling
• Murasaki is a scroll-based reader app, similar to standard web browsers.
Paginated View Mode (Horizontal Writing Mode Only)
• Murasaki supports a paginated view mode. This is a hybrid viewing mode that combines free scrolling with column snapping (available only in horizontal writing mode).
Multiple Windows
• Murasaki can open different EPUB files in separate windows. Furthermore, Murasaki allows you to open different sections of the *same* EPUB file simultaneously across multiple windows.
Popovers
• By opening a link in a popover window, you can quickly preview a linked page, footnote, etc., without navigating away from your current page.
Image Panels
• By opening images in dedicated panels, you can read the accompanying text while keeping the relevant images in view.
Search
• You can search for specific words or phrases contained within the EPUB file.
Bookmarking
• You can create bookmarks to easily reference specific pages later.
Full Screen
• By entering full-screen mode, you can view the EPUB content in an immersive, full-screen environment.
User Stylesheets
• Murasaki supports the application of custom user stylesheets.
Popover Dictionary
• You can look up words using a built-in popover dictionary.
