-QComicBook (Comic Book Reader)
+qcomicbook (comic book reader)
-QComicBook is a graphical application that allows sequential display of
-archived (zip or rar) images, a well known technique for distributing
-digital copies of comic books.
+QComicBook is a viewer for PDF files and comic book archives
+containing jpeg/png/xpm/gif/bmp images, which aims at convenience
+and simplicity. Features include: automatic unpacking of archive
+files, full-screen mode, continuous scrolling mode, double-pages
+viewing, manga mode, thumbnails view, page scaling, mouse or keyboard
+navigation etc.
+
+Optional, but highly recommended:
+
+unrar - required for .cbr files.
+p7zip - required for .cb7 files.
+unace - required for .cba files (which are pretty rare).
+
+These are runtime dependencies; you don't have to rebuild qcomicbook
+after installing them.
