Lightbulb Use Kindle Highlights and Notes...

Hi

Did some hacking to use the Kindle Highlights, in context (that means, with the book's content) on my computer...
It was very frustrating to me that I*was not able to see those notes "in" the book, ie with the full context...

First draft, very hacked, nothing tested... but it works

It will be quite hard to inject this back into a format that is usable in Calibre

https://gitlab.com/belgeek/kindle-hightlights

tl;dr;

It extracts the Hightlights and Notes from the Kindle files and converts them...
Then it converts the Mobi file to `rawml` that can be opened in a browser
Then it injects the Hightlights and Notes...*and a little JS*and CSS*makes it easy to navigate through the different notes...
