Well....at least now we know why he had an issue with Sigil, that nobody else has encountered. I don't understand WHY he would be copying all those files to Sigil's private temp folders--perhaps it's because he
does think that it's "only an editor--but it also explains why he's
not having any issues with Jutoh.
My take on this is, why shouldn't he stick with Jutoh? It's working for him, he's happy with it, he's already over the learning curve w/Jutoh of having to reinvent the CSS wheel, etc., and he can tweak his Jutoh-generated ePUBs using Sigil, without abusing Sigil and forcing it to crash and struggle. So...what's the rumpus? He's got a process that works for him, and it's
patently abundant that he has
zero interest in listening to anything anyone here says.
He's got his online book built, and he can replicate the process as needed. (shrug). No need to troubleshoot or assist further. We know why it was crashing--as the thread called it, before we knew, it's user error. So...
it's all cool now, man.
