kutuzov's Issues

Improve navigation

Create navigation control to simplify current reading position change.
It can be scrollbar or something like sublime text' scroll control.

Improve user interface

Rethink and remake user interface.
Make it neat and clean.

Dont play without text

Open kutuzov without text file selected.
Press space or click on output area.

Result: kutuzov swithed to play mode, controls disappeard.
Expected: nothing happens, controls still remain.

Core features

Play/pause button.
Basic settings (wpm, output text alignment, chunk size, font settings).
Hotkeys.

Inside: improve architecture, break chains between file open and text playing.

Add paste control

Add instant paster: control to paste text which would be played.

Persistent settings

Save settings between sessions.
Save current file positions between sessions.

Chunk-by-chunk file reading

Improve iterator to make it read chunk-by-chunk instead of all file at once.

Where is my commits, dude?

Improve speed control

Change reading speed on mouse scroll or keyboard arrow keys press (up, down).

Hide all controls in read mode

In read mode, only text should be on screen. Nothing else.

Add support of additional encodings

Try to detect and correctly display files in different (popular) encodings.

Improve chunker

Dashes and other symbols shouldn't be treated as standalone words.

Chunk size: 2.
Wrong: "— No"
Right: "— No way!"

Add support of additional file types

Research and implement possible file types support.
The more important is e-book file types (epub, mobi etc).
