Zen mode

Only the text, centred: scroll or pages flow, spotlight, typewriter and teleprompter.

Zen mode: only the text, centeredZen mode: only the text, centered

z enters zen: only the text, centred. esc leaves; s shows the normal Source view. Z opens the settings popup (↑ ↓ row, space toggle, ← → adjust, ⏎ save, esc revert). In zen, [ and ] move by section.

Setting Does
Flow scroll, or pages: one section per page, short ones centred
Spotlight dims the lines outside the section you are reading
Typewriter keeps the reading line on the middle row
Ghost chrome the top line and hints fade out after a moment
Teleprompter space starts and pauses auto-scroll at the set words per minute
Measure the text width in columns, or the whole pane

Spotlight, typewriter and the teleprompter are for the scroll flow. While reading, < > make the text narrower or wider and + - change the teleprompter speed (saved at once). With an ai block, a glosses the section you are reading (a again: more or less of it, A asks again); from 140 columns the gloss sits in the right margin.

Zen always starts off; its settings are saved under zen in config.json.
