It is specifically +designed to handle comic books, but also serves as a generic viewer. It +reads images in ZIP, RAR, 7Zip or tar archives as well as plain image files. It +is written in Python and uses GTK+ through the PyGTK bindings. + +MComix is a fork of the Comix project, and aims to add bug fixes and stability +improvements after Comix development came to a halt in late 2009. + +OPTIONAL DEPENDENCIES: +You also need either the "unrar" or the "rar" program installed if you wish +to read RAR (.cbr) archives. + +Alternatively, MComix can be built over the optional dependency libunrar +from Rarlab. + +To read 7Zip archives, you need to have the "7z" program installed. Likewise, +"lha" is needed to open LHA/LZA archives. Note that "7z" can be used as +substitute for both "unrar" and "lha". |
