# Launching using the included launcher
KOReader includes a very simple launcher called `button-listen` which starts
KOReader when the middle button is held down for 3 or more seconds in the
default UI (xochitl).
cp -v koreader/*.service /etc/systemd/system/
systemctl enable --now button-listen
Hold down the middle button for 3 seconds to start koreader. To return to
xochitl just exit koreader (swipe down from the top of the screen, select icon
in the top right, Exit, Exit).
To return to the default UI just exit KOReader (swipe down from the top of the
screen, select icon in the top right, Exit, Exit).
Some reMarkable software updates will wipe the new systemd units so you will have
to run the last two steps again when that happens.
to run the two install steps again when that happens.
# Using a different launcher
The command that the launcher needs to run is:
/home/root/koreader/koreader.sh
Alternatively, if you want the default behaviour of KOReader exit starting the
default UI you can run (once on installation):
cp -v koreader/koreader.service /etc/systemd/system/
Then to start KOReader the launcher needs to run:
systemctl start koreader
