One way to do it is using lynx.  It does not need a html file in order to
view files.  While in a file using lynx, one can load the text file in an
editor with the "e" key and add marks of one's choice and return to using
lynx as a viewer.  When wanting to resume, just search for the mark.
There are more complex versions of this approach but this is enough to
start using it.


Another similar approach is to use pilot, which has many of the features
readit has, including file manipulation and navigation.  It too allows
editing a file from the menu of files in a directory, setting marks as
above, and then using the search to return to them. It would be ideal if
someone duplicated the extreme functionality of readit in linux.
