The text file reader I posted a few days ago has rapidly evolved,
and version 0.4 is now posted. Rita now has a config file where
defaults can be set, and several command line options to override
those settings. Those options permit selecting a quiet mode of
operation, continuous reading, and tolerance for upper ascii
characters in a text file. Other parameters are screen size and
reading rate, which must be changed in the config file. I also
squashed a handful of bugs which could not be ignored.

This will undoubtedly be my last post on this package, unless of
course anyone has questions or reports problems. Check it out at:

Years ago when DOS was alive, I played with text file readers and
named them after favorite human readers of the time. One was
Ralph The Reader, another was Barb The Browser. Rita follows in
that tradition, although of course this time it is offered in the
Linux world and makes no attempt to read anything other than
plain text files with lines of proper length.  It (she?) meets
some needs of mine, and perhaps it (she?) will for you too.
