Hello,

well, maybe the number of 98 percent is a big one, but for me it is of no importance. I can not write for windows. It is like asking someone to hurt himself. It is only my personal opinion.

I now have found the way I can integrate recoll very good.

I add a new column with the calibres id (also stored in the name of the directory). So now, after I make a search with recoll I can get a string like:

Code:

#cid:=34 or =56 or =76

and just use it for search these books in calibre.

I now will try to make a plugin for that.

docfetcher or something other is not an alternative as an external program for me, because they do not have terminal (cmd think on unix) access, so you have to start the program with a gui.

The other thing is, that I have bad experiences with java so I do not like programs written in it.

I can tell you, how to make an own column with the ids, maybe, if you use something else you could create a string containing the ids and copy/paste it into calibre.

Preferencies -> add you own columns
Lookup name: cid
Column heading: CID
Column type: Column built form other columns
Template: {id}

Hope, that can help.
