erdr2pml.py

Hi,

Actually erdr2pml.py does no html conversion at all. It just has the capability to unpack the **all** of the sections in the .pdb file. All of these extras can be discarded since they are actually recreated by Dropbook when dropping the pml file on. Most have already been commented out. So you can safely comment out chapters.txt and the link information too if you so desire.

As for the footnotes and sidebars, they are converted to pml markup and not xml code. Unless something has changed Dropbook did not handle either sidebars or footnotes done via xml properly? Has that changed? If so, then then the comments in the code can easily be used to put in the xml code for Dropbook.

Your change to clean up high chars in file for Mac OS is quite useful. Thanks.

It is too bad this damn thing can't be properly hosted and developed just like any other piece of open source software.

Oh well.
