bk is a WIP terminal EPUB reader, written in Rust.

• Cross platform - Linux, macOS and Windows support
• Single binary, instant startup
• EPUB 2/3 support
• Vim bindings
• Incremental search
• Bookmarks

Install from crates.io:

cargo install bk

or from github:

git clone https://github.com/aeosynth/bk
cargo install --path bk

Usage: bk [<path>] [-m] [-t] [-w <width>]

read a book

Options:
  -m, --meta        print metadata and exit
  -t, --toc         start with table of contents open
  -w, --width       characters per line
  --help            display usage information

Running bk without a path will load the most recent EPUB.

Type any function key (eg F1) to see the keybinds.

Check if your terminal supports italics:

echo -e "\e[3mitalic\e[0m"

1: you can use the --meta switch to use bk as a file previewer with eg nnn
