I was very excited to learn that calibre supports adding empty books. I keep a separate excel file with all my books listed along with books that I would like to purchase/find. I was wondering if there was anyway to add several "empty" books (maybe from a command line) so that I can copy and paste a list and have calibre create the "empty" books based on that action. This would certainly be a step forward to eliminating keeping a separate record of books in excel.

For example:

copy
Storm Front
Fool Moon
Grave Peril
Summer Knight
Death Masks

result 4 empty books
Storm Front
Fool Moon
Grave Peril
Summer Knight
Death Masks

Thanks in advance!!
