Question

Hi kiwidude,
first off - I really like your plugins. Great work. ^^

I have a question about your 'Find duplicates' plugin. Is there a possibility to auto delete all the binary duplicates save one? Just the actual binary duplicates and not the whole book entry?

Cause I have quite a few books, a lot with differnt formats in one entry, but as well duplicates of those.

A lil example:
I have several entries of the same book. Call it 'Book A'. Then there are several formats of said book. And to mix it up a bit more there are differnt versions of those formats (mobi version1 & mobi version2...)

Book A: mobi v1, lit v1, pdf v1
Book A Copy: mobi v1, lit v2, pdf v1
Book A 2nd Copy: epub v1, mobi v2, lit v2, txt v1
and so on

So when I get the results I can't just delete all the mobi formats save one or all the pdf duplicats. I know that one or the other is the exact same file, but I can't see the differnce without opening up every single file when I have a result like the example up there.

If auto delete is not an option, maybe highlighting the formats which are a binary duplicate would be possible?

Book A: mobi v1, lit v1, pdf v1
Book A Copy: mobi v1, lit v2, pdf v1
Book A 2nd Copy: epub v1, mobi v2, lit v2, txt v1

or something along that line?

Ahh - when I already have your attention: Is there somewhere in calibre a 'Back' button? I was really looking for one more then once already
