I have a book in .lit format in which a character's speech is enclosed within angle brackets. <Greetings mobileread forum dwellers> etc. When I use lit2lrf to convert this book, that speech completely disappears. For longer messages (several sentences at least enclosed within the brackets) a few words at the end are sometimes displayed, but for the most part, everything in the brackets is lost / not converted. I'm assuming this is because lit2lrf uses some sort of html converter, and the angle brackets are viewed as tags, and mess up the parsing.

Is there any way around this? Thanks in advance.
