Seriously, I
do use makelrf 0.3! (I just checked my script to be certain).
The text files from PG are converted to an interim HTML, as a first step. That includes reflowing all the linebreaks using "gut".
After that, depending on the output format, extra linefeeds are removed, HTML tags are stripped, and the temp text file is saved as book.txt.
The script makes an info.xml and a image.gif file for makelrf to use, and then runs a command like this:
Code:
makelrf -x info.xml -o outputfile.lrf -i /tmp/image.gif -a "Author Name" /tmp/image.gif -f '/tmp/book.txt'
Perhaps your text files have hard line-breaks at the end of each line?
