Is there a way to get cleaner HTML other than having to go through the HTML code manually?

I use notepad++ and its html tidy plugin. Try it might help.

Is that the TextFX plugin?

I just pushed a "b" version of 0.2.0 for Mac an Linux. On Mac, it should fix some crashes on Leopard caused by linking to the Snow Leopard SDK, and on Linux it includes libphonon, which prevent some people who didn't have it from starting Sigil.

Completely off topic, but why should Sigil use Phonon? isn't that Qt multimedia module...

Sigil uses QtWebKit, and it depends on phonon for HTML5 functionality. Not that that functionality is used in Sigil, but still, it's a dependency.

Oh, Didn't know that. Thanks.

I just installed 0.2.0 (thanks), now when I open an ePub from Calibre to tweak it I get each section as a separate "page". Is there a setting I can use to get one long file like the previous versions had?

No. That "large single flow" idea was unworkable.

The manual offers more information.

Thanks for the info. Wish it still worked the other way, kinda like Book Designer or a word processor, but I'm sure I'll get used to it.

Even though you only see one html page at a time I like the fact that you can search and replace code in all html files at one time.

Yes, that is good. It kind of reminds me of editing multiple HTML pages with Notepad ++

If you use BookDesigner, you might try a little utility I uploaded recently (see my signature). When you import the resulting html file into Sigil, you can do all your editing in one large file. When you are done, you can split the file in multiple chapters with F6.

I can appreciate that. One thing that I miss about that paradigm is the ability to change my mind about where I put a chapter break. With an SGF file, you could delete the double red lines and that was it, but now that we have a separate file for each chapter, it looks like the only way to fix a "missed" mouse click is to cut and paste the contents of the new page back over to the old page.

Are those new files created instantly, or might it be possible to have an "undo" of the chapter break command, even if only for a limited time?

Edit: OK, never mind. It turns out I was running with beta3 -- the release version looks like it may have solved my problem for me.

The next version will bring a way of "merging" two chapters back into one.

Cool. In the mean time, it looks like the release version allows you to insert SGF chapter break markers, which should allow me to work around that limitation, as long as I remember what I'm doing.

Great work!
