And so it does. But, it seems a bit magic. Somewhat early on, the rawml has the 14 byte string "</body></html>" not in assembled_text.dat, then somehow the two files have unaligned sets of opening and closing html and body tags which somehow do not affect the byte offsets of book text.

rzikaou's rawml file has extra header tags not in the assembled_text.dat file.

So the C azw3r and the perl azw3r.pl can be used as is with
-r assembled_text.dat -o 0
