I also thanked Kovil for his work so far. For a single programmer it's a nice piece of work.

The name's Kovid and no you didn't thank me for my work.

Successful software does not require users to learn a programming language, which is basically what RegEx is. 20 Years ago I would have enjoyed playing with it, but I have other things to do with my time at present as do most other people do.
I'd rather be reading a book. Hmmm, isn't that why Calibre was written?

So go read a book and stop wasting everyone's time.

Not having a good way to enter data into a database reminds me of having to punch cards to enter data into a computer in high school. I can understand it 30 years. There is no excuse for it today.

Talk about hyperbole.

Wake up and accept the fact that as it is NOW Calibre has severe limititations.
Yes, it has many good points such as it's conversion abilities, but also several serious problems.

So please don't use it. The million other users who use calibre wont miss you. And I mean a million,

For those of you who don't understand the differences between working with 200 records and 5000 or more I suggest you do some reading or programming and learn.
When you have, perhaps you'll realize how serious the flaws are with Calibre in it's present form.

calibre is used by many people for collections as large as 50,000 books, including some who posted in this thread. The fact that you would rather spend your time whining instead of doing the little bit of work necessary to suit your purposes, is entirely your loss.
