B5 Reading Plan...Nice Job
I never thought of solving the reading plan/title page problem by allowing to select by page numbers but it really works as far as I've tested it. Very nice job!

Hi Philip - not sure what you mean here, but I'm not all that familiar with the reading plan tool yet.

When setting up a reading plan for a non-Bible Book before B5 you would spend 3 days reading the title page and table of contents because there was no way to say what part of the book you wanted to read. There was discussion about how to solve this problem but as far as I can remember no on mentioned being able to set your reading plan by page numbers. now that I read electronically more I pay less attention to them (sad but true). I'm sure someone did mention it though. At any rate now if you want to set up a plan from a book in your collection you can tell it to set the plan for pages x to y, or from "a to b, x to y". It is a very welcome feature.

Ok ... I'm unable to find where to restrict the page numbers? All I have is
Read <Resource>,<Range> starting <date> ...

when you create the reading plan for the first time it includes all pages, but then gives you the option between resource and start date to change the page numbers

Assuming the resource you're reading has page numbers it does.

I guess it would be good to make sure that is mentioned :-)

Yes, thank you so much! I requested this feature, and it has been implemented perfectly so far as I can tell. Thank you.

It may be nice to have an "Update" option for when a day is missed.
The "Update" could work in several ways:
1. Use the same time frame and redivide the book over the remaining days.
2. Extend the time frame by however many days it is behind. (Just adjusting it so that the day you should read becomes today's reading.)
That way if you are away from you computer for a week or so, you can easily adjust the reading plan to just continue where you would have been rather than always being behind.
