I am migrating from using Plucker for a Palm TX to Calibre for Alkido on an Archos 43. I add articles from the web I want to read to my Google Bookmarks and then periodically export from Google to an HTML file.

That is what I used to feed into Plucker and it worked pretty well. I just had to make some hacks in the Plucker Python for some odd markup that caused certain sites to fail.

I am trying to do something similar with Calibre. I am working on a recipe. Getting the bookmarks file to be parsed and the links downloaded is working. But I will need to add some custom processing logic for certain sites. As a start I am trying to add logic from the english.aljazeera.net recipe to make those pages work.

Is this something others have done? I didn't see anything in this forum but it is a tricky topic to search for.
