Just a few comments about the ITP (about the English). These are
somewhat terse, but this is laziness not a reflection of my mood!

Which version?

This would probably work out better something like:

"A general purpose text viewer, designed for reading long documents

Use "automatically remembers"

>  * support full screen
>  * support hide reader to tray with Esc
>  * support move with arrow key
>  * support bookmark
>  * support codec selecting

And "supports": you want to refer to the software package in the 3rd
person singular. This is probably down to taste, but I would also
capitalize these lines.
