New issue by etosan on void-packages repository
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/29676
Description:
**package name:** llpp
**project homepage:** https://repo.or.cz/w/llpp.git
**purpose:** smooth (scrolling) continuous (pages wrap seamlessly) pdf viewer, with advanced features built on top of mudpf
There also seem to be copy of the repo here on github https://github.com/moosotc/llpp, but repo.cz project is referenced in other package managers.
This is thick layer built around mupdf core, which makes it better pdf/cbz/etc viewer. Most important features are: it provides continuous "page stream" (you see previous page bottom and next page top when scrolling, in addittion to current one), in addition to that, it has smooth scrolling (non-jumping panning). Finally it supports arbitrary numbers of columns (for example 2 col mode: L page, R page; but even 3+ column modes are possible). All these capabilities make it easier on the eyes when reading "serious" books on the computer.
Unfortunately the outer non mupdf part is written in OCaml lang. - I have no clue how ocaml works and how this can be packaged into the void. Maybe some of our OCaml experts could chime in?
