Product Description:

Tofu is an novel application which addresses the problem that many people don't like reading text on the screen. It arranges text in columns, which allows fast text reading. Furthermore, it completely avoids vertical scrolling. You scroll from column to column horizontally, which makes the text feel more stable and easier to keep track of.

What's new in this version:

Fixed a bug on Mac OS X 10.3 that would not show plain text documents when justification was turned off in the preferences.
A message is shown when entering full-screen mode, advising that you can exit it using the escape key.
You can now use command-L to switch out of full-screen mode, as well as the escape key.
Fixed a bug that would prevent RTFD files from loading that contained an image right at the beginning.
Fixed a bug that wouldn't resize the first character in a text if it had a different style from the second.
Fixed a bug that would cause text not to load when your preferred font is no longer available.

Operating System Requirements:

Mac OS X 10.3

A great text reader!
I have used Tofu for several years, first with OS 10.3 and now with 10.5. Have an easier time reading text and some news articles. I like the fact that links work and that I can adjust it to my current iMac screen.I drag and drop from textEdit and cut and paste from a web browser.
