[Jeff Smith] 2021-09-01 : Below is an online demo using [CloudTk]. This demo runs "Highlighter" in a Debian-Slim Linux Docker Container. It is a 162MB image which is made up of Debian-Slim Linux + tclkit-8.6.3 + libx11-6 + libxft2 + libxss1 + fontconfig + fonts-linuxlibertine +wget. It is run under a user account in the Container. The Container is restrictive with permissions for "Other" removed for "execute" and "read" for certain directories. Version of [tclMuPdf] used in this demo is 2.1.1.

'''Please Note''' : This demo has a run time of 5 minutes.
[ABU] 2021-10-05 : Good online demo! but the native app is more responsive and pages are rendered at higher quality. Note that this online demo does not support MouseWheel (or trackpad gestures), so its usability is limited. If you like it, download the native app.
