[GUI Plugin] Sum Column

A simple GUI plugin to sum up configurable columns of the selected books.

The idea came when in somebody in a german eBook forum asked if such a plugin did exist. No one knew of a plugin like this. The alternative of exporting a book list to CSV and do the evaluation inside a spreadsheet application was annoying.

So i decided to write a simple plugin to sum up numerical columns. Here it is.

Features
  • Configure which user defined numerical columns should be summed up
  • Sum up these columns for all selected books
  • Displays the result inside a dialog and the status bar
  • Prepared to work inside the Favourites Menu

Notes
The plugin was only tested with Calibre 3.40.1. If you encounter issues with older versions, please contact me.
