<h2>Usage and considerations</h2>
|
|
<p></p>You can create a collection in any folder (write privilieges are needed). Creation process involves looking for image files in any
|
|
rar,zip,cbr,cbz and tar files. If images are found, the first one (alfabetically) is taken as the comic cover and added
|
|
to the collection.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The hidden folder .yacreaderlibrary is created in the root path of your comics folder. This folder stores
|
|
the library with cover's tumbnails, so please, don't mess with it.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><s>.yacreaderlibrary folder can be copied in order to share your comic library with your friends. To do that, you
|
|
can copy .yacreaderlibrary to any folder, and then "Open an existing library" from this folder (Note:
|
|
if you update that library, all covers will be removed). Is intended that this task could be done automatically from YACReaderLibrary in a later version.</s></p>
