Featurereq: Sigil incorporation

booksonthemove · 02-24-2010, 06:54 AM

Hello calibres

The desired endpoint: Selecting a particular book, of a particular type, then hitting a key (as one does for example, v to view), or selecting via a menu or an icon a book which launches into Sigl allowing editing and saving in situ.

I think I can do this via the plugin mechanism, but am right now unsure how to do the bolded part.

At the moment what I do is right click on the book in calibre and click "open containing folder" then double click the epub file to open in sigil.

Saving the file in sigil saves it the location calibre uses, seems to work fine.

Cool. I've done this, but something (sigil?) doesn't like spaces in the filenames, so I've told calibre to use underscores and have renamed the library to calibre_library.

thanks!
