[Request] External bookmark file for calibre viewer
Hi, this feature would be very helpful for library used in sync on two or more PC.
Basically, I need a setting which will override iterator.pickle, and read external file located in the same foder as book file (for example, main file "book.fb2" with bookmark file "book.bkm")
Current functionality is very limited and does not support any sane sync process:
1. on different PCs, books folder can be located on different drives so syncing iterator.pickle would be pointless.
2. not all books are stored in epub format (so no internal bookmarks)
3. even if converted to epub format, modifying epub with internal bookmarks.txt is bad for checksum
4. from what I read on forum, iterator.pickle always have precedence over internal epub bookmarks
Or, make iterator.pickle bookmarks relative to database location so I could sync it between PCs?
Or, is there any way to 'auto-import' bookmarks from file when starting viewer and auto-export when exiting and/or modifying bookmarks?
