Yes, "Sort by file path" is the only way I could find to make the library work in any way sensibly.
I also have an AppleScript wrapper around mobi2mobi which make setting the author and book name simple - by dragging a folder onto the AppleScript, it takes that folder name as the author name, and then uses the file names of the files inside the folder (recursively) as the book ame, but carefully trimming off any leading number, so that I can keep series in folders and in their proper order.
It's working quite well so far, but I wish there was a good Mac OS X eBook manager (and yes, I've taken a look at Calibre, but it seems a bit too sony oriented).
Perhaps I'll have to wait until Apple does an eBook Reader :-)

The approach you describe is very ingenious; I'll have to try it myself. Hopefully, though, before too long we'll get the promised "folder view" from Bookeen  . |
