LIT File Viewer for Mac OS X

Question

I know that LIT files can be converted to HTML files on a Mac, but is there an actual lit file viewer for Mac analogous to MS ebook reader?

Solution 1

I have been using Stanza to read .lit files. Check it out.

Solution 2

calibre is a one stop solution to all your e-book needs. It is free, open source and cross-platform in design and works well on Linux, OS X and Windows.

I just checked it. The rendering is very bad. :-(

No I can't add a link to my answer: last time I did, all but 1 point were deducted from my account. Oh my hard-earned points :-(

Thank you for the suggestion. I tried calibre on OSX and it is really slow and sluggish. Plus, it does not render broken HTML well enough. For example, in a LIT the entire book content was underlined (unclosed <u> tag? IE would have rendered it well)

LIT is always tricky unless you're using MS REader, i avoid this format like the plague ... other than that i can only think of a VBox with XP + MS REader for your Mac
