As far as I can see, it is all working correctly.

If I remove the doc_input.py file in the conversions directory of my calibre settings, the defaults from the plugin are used for the preferences and any new conversion. This file is where the preferences are stored for this plugin.

If I select a doc that has not been converted, it uses whatever I have set in the preferences. I can change this to another location without any problems.

The next time I convert the book, it uses the setting from the last time I converted the book. Pressing the "Restore defaults" button at the bottom of the screen restores whatever I have in the preferences, or the defaults from the plugin if I hadn't changed them.

A bulk conversion has an option at the top about using the stored settings for each book. The settings are store with the book for the next conversion.

As to the format of the path, exactly what form is used for the separator depends on how it is used. Either "\\" or "/" is safer. Depending on what is done with the string, a single slash can be interpreted as an escape character. Hence "\\" will actually be a single slash and "\t" a tab character. But, it appears that everything is handling the different versions of the path OK.

Unless I have missed something, the errors are all related to the existence of wordconv.exe and the differences between the preferences and saved settings for a book. As I mentioned before, I have not actually installed this and just have a few copies of empty files called "wordconv.exe". The conversion doesn't happen, but the error is because the program won't run, not that it can't be found. I suppose I should install it. But, when I searched, neither Google or MS wanted to tell me where it was. I didn't try that hard, but if someone has a link, I'll try it.

If I have missed something in the reports, point it out and I'll have another look.
