Thank you for contributing. > Actually, I called it nov.el because it's for reading novels. We've been having a discussion about how to make Emacs easier to learn. I think one important way is to cease giving packages cryptic names, and start giving each mode or package a name whose meaning will be clear to everyone who sees it. The name "Nov mode" is not clear -- witness the fact that it wasn't obvious to me what it meant. One needs to be told its meaning. What would you think of "E-Reader mode"? "E-Book View mode"?
