Thanks again for your speedy answer,

I used your code from here: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=179686

and just changed *.epub to *.recipe, and *.mobi to *.epub

abd added a timestamp

#!/usr/bin/python
import os, time, glob, subprocess
import datetime
# get the date to add to caption and file name
datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%d")

files = glob.glob('Armstrong Economics.recipe')

workers = []
while files or workers:
    while len(workers) < 4 and files:
        f = files[0]
        files = files[1:]
        w = subprocess.Popen(['ebook-convert', f,
            os.path.splitext(f)[0]+'_'+datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%Y_%m_%d")+'.epub'])
        workers.append(w)
    for w in list(workers):
        if w.poll() is not None:
            workers.remove(w)
    time.sleep(0.1)

and it works great :-)

tx again
