Please, do not distort my language!
About books, that you read in other applications (PDF, DJVU, and so on).
English native readers, imagine: you have a book (fictiv).
Author: Pelham Greenville Wodehouse
Title: Stanley Featherstonehough Ukridge 3.
Format: PDF
Open it from Calibre, in STDU Viewer.
In title bar and on the tab you see:
Stanley Featherstonehough Ukridge 3_ - Pelham Grenville Wodehouse
It is illogical: why title first? I DO NOT WANT SO. Author is most important. Go to library, and look with your eyes! And wrong seems (3_ instead of 3.).
You say, no probleme, Calibre is so beautiful, that you leave him to distort YOUR thinking? Hmm... OK, it is your decision.
But look the next! You see this:
Vúdhauz Pelem Grínvil: Júkridzs Sztenli Fensó
How about it? Do you like it? No? THIS IS EXACTLY THE SAME, WHAT DO CALIBRE WITH MY HUNGARIAN BOOKS.
Or this?
Пэлем Грэнвил Вудхауз: Стенли Феншо Юкридж
THIS IS EXACTLY THE SAME, WHAT DO CALIBRE WITH MY RUSSIAN BOOKS.
Please, do not say me, that in 2015, when UTF-8 is used in deep african villages already, is not possible to let me read my books, as they written.
Please, do not say me, that I can export out the book, and read after. ALL force me to read directly, from Calibre. One click -- or export > open that folder > open that file: compare them! Why not to open book in outer application through this process, automatically? NO REAL ARGUMENT against.
If to make interfaces, alredy the hundredth, to any web site, that sells 5 books in year, developers have time -- why they have no time to solve: not to kill the other people languages?
PS
By the way: Foobar2000 CAN handle UTF-8. Mp3tag CAN, too. Total Commander CAN, too.
Calibre CAN NOT.
