thanks Euclid, you were prefectly clear in your first message, and I did get the gist, but I do not know if this can be done and how.
All the things I can think of have a manual component, however you may want to have a look at the
Calibre plugins - there is one on
Book sync that might do for you if you use a SD card: since you can get Calibre to connect to any folder on your computer by clicking on the "connect/share" button in Calibre and selecting "connect to folder", you can then browse any folder on your PC, so select the SD card (which must be in the slot, obviously). It will appear on Calibre as a "device", though of course it is just your SD card, and the plugin should sync.
There is a
wireless sync plugin using SSH/RSH, but here I am totally out of my depth
but if you check the top message in
this thread there is how to get remote shell access, but in my deep ignorance I am not sure this is of any help
to "automatic management" the "send to device" tab in the "preferences", I think Calibre
should send the updated books to your card as soon as it "connects" - this would achieve your objective, but you'd better double check on the Calibre forum - unless of course somebody else here can give you a hand.
