My knowledge of Windows batch files is very limited -- hopefully adikira will chime in, but I *think* something along these lines should work to parse Author-File.doc to the metadata:
(For 64 bit Windows, just converting .doc to .epub)
Code:
for %%I in (*.doc) do (
for /f "tokens=1,2 delims=-" %%a in ("%%~nI") do (
"C:\Program Files (x86)\AbiWord\bin\AbiWord.exe" --to=html "%%I"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Calibre2\ebook-convert.exe" "%%~nI.html" "%%~nI.epub" --authors="%%a" --title="%%b"
)
)
For 32 bit Windows you can use Adikira's trick of %PROGRAMFILES%:
Code:
for %%I in (*.doc) do (
for /f "tokens=1,2 delims=-" %%a in ("%%~nI") do (
"%PROGRAMFILES%\AbiWord\bin\AbiWord.exe" --to=html "%%I"
"%PROGRAMFILES%\Program Files (x86)\Calibre2\ebook-convert.exe" "%%~nI.html" "%%~nI.epub" --authors="%%a" --title="%%b"
)
)
This did not bypass the need for a different file for 32 bit and 64 bit, since I found that %PROGRAMFILES% expands to "C:\Program Files\" even on 64 bit systems, and hence, this wouldn't work if your executables are under "C:\Program Files (x86)\".
No clue what that will do with files that don't have dashes in them. Too lazy to check.
This would be very easy on linux.
