[Emacspeak] Re: Reading Books: Re: Plugin Recommendations Thread (2023 Edition)



First of all, this epub stuff is great. 

Secondly... org-mode seems like... a lot.  I have no idea what I would do with it 
or where I might start. 

Finally, regarding swiper.  Maybe I have a mental block with using the built in
search, things I love about swiper, and I don't have enough vision to read 
results it shows, are: 

1. fuzzy finding on line, if I know it starts with def and has Kitty in it I can find 
it. 
2. I can loop go through results with up and down arrows and jump to the one
I am on with return. 
3. I can return the the search with a keypress exactly where I left off if I jump 
to the wrong one. 
4. Bi-directional, I can go forward or back from where I am with arrow up or 
down. 
5. I even use it to read files, if I am looking for all my keybinds I just do a 
swiper for global-set-key and read them with up and down arrow. 

The fuzzy finding, the ergonomics of up/down keys to move around and
quick return to it if I jump to the wrong place are the key features.
