Awesome!
I used the program extensively for my open book tests in lieu of bringing my textbooks, because I don't own the digital iterations of my textbooks. nPDF is fairly snappy when the calculator is overclocked.
However, it often runs completely out of memory after opening, closing, zooming and page-turning of many docs (or large docs), at the point which PDFs no longer open. For some reason, the memory does not recover after the PDFs have been opened. I do not know how to fix this issue short of resetting the calc and reinstalling ndless (a minor annoyance). If there is a way to clear the memory without resetting the calc, I would love to know!
I have a few ideas for the project that I might try to implement this summer. One would be a hotkey to make the screen black, to save battery power/prevent people from seeing the contents of your screen. Another would be the ability to view the current/total page.
