I haven't looked at the other match algorithms. I should.
I am using user_none's code, which first lower_cases the title and then uses a regexp to prepare the title for matching. The regexp,
Code:
re.sub('(?u)\W|[_]', '' ...)
removes all non-alphanumeric and '_' characters.

I don't have any ebook devices (or none that Calibre considers to be a "Device")

I also have a device that isn't a calibre device -- an HTC phone. I have been wondering whether it makes sense to build a general driver that matches any USB storage that the other drivers do not, and simply uses a folder on the device to store books. One way to do it is to have a USB plugin that accepts lists of device id:folder pairs. I don't think it would be outrageously hard, but I could be surprised, especially when cross-platform issues are factored in.
What I don't know is if it would be useful. Sometimes I want it, and sometimes I think that saving to disk is enough. However, with the new OnDevice feature, I think that I will want my phone to be considered a valid device. Reflection continues.
