BBeB (LRF) generation tools

Just thought I'd make a list, since many people are not aware these tools exist.

1) MakeLRF
The first tool, released even before Sony's own LIBRIe addons. Converts a text file.
http://www.sven.de/librie_files/
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/librie...entGeneration/
Has a GUI, MakeLRFGUI:

2) Sony's LIBRIe addons (mostly in Japanese, and mostly require LIBRIe):

How to install Printer for LIBRIe without a LIBRIe.
3) flatLRF, a Java tool which can convert whole sites to an LRF book.
http://monalipse.sourceforge.jp/tmp/lrf/
4) Book Creator, an official tool by Canon. Probably the most complete solution, however it is not distributed freely anymore.

5) lrs2lrf, a command-line tool which uses a DLL from Book Creator to compile a Xylog XML (BBeB source format) .lrs file into an .lrf

6) BookDesigner.
A multi-format conversion tool which can also output LRF files, using the same DLL from Book Creator.

7) Libriate, a Mac OS X GUI for makelrf

8) BBeBook, a Java port of makelrf

9) HTML2LRF. Converts one or several HTML files to an LRF. Uses DLLs from Toolbar for LIBRIe.

Tools for already compiled LRF files:
1) EditLRFMeta. Edits meta-information (Author, Title, etc).
http://editlrfmeta.peterknowles.com/
2) LRFParser. Parses an LRF file, dumps all tags and streams:

3) LrfConvCLI. Uses flatLRF library to convert an LRF to an XML format used by flatLRF.
4) lrf2lrs. A Python tool, tries to convert an LRF to a Xylog XML .lrs file.
