Does anyone know of a quick way to add all the books on Project Gutenberg's Sci-Fi CD to Calibre's library in one pass..?
I was hoping I could find a way to have Calibre list all the books on one screen where I would select them.. hit the return key or click something like "Open".. and voilą..
Each book appears to be provided in html (one text file + images in a sub-directory), text format (ASCII or latin1).. and .pdb files (Plucker Palm document).
Calibre is unable to convert the .pdb files to .epub (either bulk or individual conversion)
I'm able to generate .epub's from the html files but I have to do them one a time.. because I have to go into into each directory separately and select the .html file.
I thought there might be a better way..
Perhaps writing a script that invokes a CLI Calibre utility on each of the html+images directory..?
I'm on debian stable with a rather ancient version of Calibre: 0.7.7..
Here's a link to Pg's CD:
