I've got some text files, in text format, that I am re-formatting as HTML. (Automatic Calibre text->HTML conversion does not retain the proper formatting for music lyrics, and I'll post the awk file here when I'm done.)

When I include <meta name="author" content="foo bar"> in the head of the HTML file, the HTML -> ePub conversion in Calibre picks up the author's name in the Calibre metadata.

I can't quite find a way to include other meta information for use as Calibre tags. 'meta name="keywords"' and the non-standard 'meta name="tags"' both fail. Calibre's manual does not have information that I could find.

So: what is the proper method to include metainfo inside an HTML file for use by Calibre?
