That's cute but they aren't quite the same thing.

That actually wasn't my response.

I guess you are unfortunately stuck in your paradigm.

All I have to do is run two commands, depending on what I am doing:

ebook-reader-prep.sh

and

ebook-organize.sh

It's not much work at all, I just like to monitor the output when I am at work.
