Sigil is stuck with the various odd deficiencies of underlying software, found when you try to cut and paste and other particular operations. It will delete by accident using the menu but not by using the keyboard.

But it has gone from being almost so slow as to be unusable to being pretty fast and pretty much does things the way I would do them unlike MS Word. The spell checker is the big thing missing especially coming from OCR or PDF source.

For my small needs, Sigil works better than calibre since I never wanted a program to organize my books to begin with and always kept my own quixotic organization.

Hail Sigil we who are about to epub salute you!
