I just uploaded a new version of the utility (see first post for the file).
Changes:
- css file generated automatically in the destination directory - no need to copy it manually.
- Added option to change straight quotes to curly quotes ("smart quotes")
- Added results window with save to file option
Notes:
- To use the utility you need to generate your ebook in BookDesigner format with
Make ebooks --> BookDesigner (html0), and after that open it from
BookDesigner with File --> Open book. If you make any changes to the book, you have to repeat the process. The reason for this is that when you save the file, BD makes some format changes in the html0 file in Lastfile that are not handled well with this utility. Generating the book and opening it again with
File--> Open Book restores formatting.
- The utility supports BookTitle, BookAuthor, Paragraph, Title, Subtitle and Notes and Links.
- Verse, text author, anotation and epigraph are not supported by the utility.
- The smart quotes option will not produce good results always. Particularly problematic are posesives of words ending in 's' and spelling of slang words. When the program finds something problematic, it indicates the line in the results window. In this case you will need an editor such as notepad++ that displays line numbers to locate the line and correct manually.
