Has anyone ever made a custom text viewer for Synchronet with a scrolly interface? Thinking along the lines of something that lets users view text files with an interface similar to DDMessageReader's.

I know there's Bullshit, which lets you define a specific set of text files in modopts. The thing I'd like would be more like a drop-in substitution for the console.printfile() function, or a loadable module that could be used in place of the stock text-dump for viewing files defined in the General Text Files section. Maybe it could have some basic functionality such as CTRL+F to find text strings, etc.

I may try to come up with one, unless one already exists.
