Cheers,

Yes, plus look at the Sigil_Plugin_Framework_rev5.epub documentation (in a thread there) and then take a look at other plugins people have already created (see the Sigil Plugin Index thread) especially the testme plugin which simply exercises as many interface calls as possible.

An output plugin could be used to do a "commit" into a rcs system and and import plugin could be used to take changes from a rcs and load them into Sigil.

If you want to work on one file, you can have an edit plugin make that file available to whatever you want and then return the result.

Check out the ePub3-itizer as an example of an Output plugin, and KindleImport plugin as an example of a Input plugin. There are a number of validation, and edit plugins that run very specific changes.

As long as you can use a python script to invoke whatever you want to do, it should be doable.
