JSWolf:
i´ve read your post about the kepub. and it made me think and search the forum, and guess what? i found an interesting post from david f. which addresses your very last post.
here, see what he says regarding KTE and the "then new KoboTouch348" that i´ve modified now:
post #31 in particular

There are two choices of what you can do.
The first is to use the version of the KoboTouch plugin linked by @PeterT above, named KoboTouch348. This will allow calibre to manage the Libra 2. Then, use the 3.2.15 version of the Kepub Output plugin and convert the books to kepub before sending them to the device. |
as a side note, this is what we have achieved now regarding clara 2e.
but he continues:

That means changing it to inherit from the KoboTouch348 driver.
Or adding the device lines in that driver to the KoboTouchExtended driver.

i´ve tried to achieve this 2 options during the afternoon, but the fact is that i dont know a bit of python and im completely lost and all the efforts resulted as nothing happening at all but the normal use of KTmodified and KTE not working at all.
its beyond my knowledge.
but the solution is there! david pointed us towards it. : ))

a completely different approach:
I guess it would much simpler to edit calibre > devices > kobo > driver.py and add the Clara e2 id and other info related to the device, so it could be recognised natively (without any modifications of the files presented here... yes???)
because the info exists and its made and working under v.6plus of calibre.
as shown here:
calibre 6, kobo clara 2e driver.py is there, and it was from here where i got the id and info to established the modifications in KT348.
but I searched and searched, within calibre app package/contents, and other related folders and files made by calibre on install on my mac.
but I just can't find where this particular file is located... any clue?
all the best.
