Yes - please keep me informed, and feel free to bounce any thoughts around - either here or via PM. I must admit to not even knowing there were file type PI's until now.

One question though - is the path_to_ebook that the onPostImport method gets the path to the file being added or the path to the file that's now in the library -- i.e is it \downloads\ebooks\fred_1234A54.epub or is it \library\author\book (428)\book - author.epub. My impression is that it's the latter.

I should download the source, not so I can run from it or modify it - merely to look at it. I'd rather look at it locally than via a browser.
