Four, not five. And the first three were before Doitsu got involved. Existing code shall always trump the philosophical idea of code.

The fourth time was partially a non-calibre query, and part correcting a misapprehension. I don't think either was unreasonable, but particularly the first part...


Aside: calibre core is not a Sigil competitor, only the calibre Editor is.
A calibre tool for bulk automation existed, I suggested it; Sigil has no CLI; processing dozens of previous books *might* be desired.
If I had been on my computer, I would probably want to write a standalone python script for bulk processing.
I didnt even realize at first that the OP was using a work computer without calibre.

I have the nagging suspicion that such a topic, while equally offtopic in the Sigil forum, would not have set you off like that^^


I did not get a chance to respond at first, and it seems you have toned down your original post, but I had been planning on asking you why you are so aggressive about calibre, esp. the part that has nothing to do with your competitor.
Do you wish to make mention of calibre verboten in the Sigil forums? If so, I think it is only fair that Sigil be verboten in the calibre forums.
With a little luck, both projects could become a right laughingstock.

...

Anyway, I know enough to know when my presence is philosophically offensive.
