Update to version 2.2.0

I have just released version 2.2.0, something I should have done a long time ago. There are a lot of changes in this:
  • New: Option to show Goodreads Sync "Update reading progress" dialog
  • Update: After storing book status, select them in the library view
  • New: Metadata uppdate - Update comments using a "jacket" or plugboard style template.
  • New: Metadata uppdate - Option to update downloaded kepubs as well sideloaded books.
  • New: Metadata uppdate - Option to set or clear the subtitle on the device.
  • Update: Display progress dialog when getting book list for updating metadata.
  • New: Submenu for driver configuration
  • New: Menu option to swap between main and extended driver.
  • New: Menu option to open driver configuration. If a device is connected, will open its configuration. Otherwise, it opens whichever is enable of the main and extended drivers.
  • New: Display device name, firmware version and the driver name in tooltip of button.

The one thing I haven't done is to update the help. I'll do that sometime.

For the comments/synopsis updates as part of the metadata updating, I decided to allow both the "jacket" and "plugboard" styles. I personally prefer the plugboard style, but this give a choice. Until I write up the help for this properly, the beta posts https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...41#post3222341, https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...53#post3234653 and surrounding posts will have to do.

As well as this change for the Update Metadata, I have also added an option for the subtitle. This can either clear the current value, or set it to a value from a custom column. If the selected column is tag-like column, the tags will be added as a comma separated list. I have considered allowing other types of columns, but I'm not sure.

As usual, calibre will start announcing the updated plugin in the next hour or so. Or, you can download it from the first post of the thread. And if you see any problems, please report them here.
