$ pandoc -o foo.epub  *.md
Is there any convention for multiple file input with any Calibre ebook creation tools? For example, these command lines don't work as I'd hope:

Code:
# Convert all .md files in current directory to HTML
$ markdown-calibre -v *.md

# Convert all .html files in directory to a single book file called foo.epub
$ ebook-convert *.html foo.epub
Thanks!
Yes
Pass the Index.html file instead, calibre will pick up those listed (in order)
It is in the Online Help FAQ
