Calibre Portable Add Books Folder
Hi everybody,
I've got Calibre Portable in an External USB. My structure is: - Books --- Calibre Portable ------ Calibre ------ Calibre Add ------ Calibre Library ------ Calibre Settings ------ DCIM ------ calibre-portable.exe I would like to define my authomatic addition folder, something like this: %THISPATH%\Calibre Add because the external USB has diferent identifing letters depending on what computer I'm using it. D: E: G: Is there a way to do what I need ? I've been looking everywhere but I haven't found any solution. Thanks in advance. |

I haven't tested this myself, but you might try:
.\Calibre Add |

I believe the PortableApps.com version of calibrePortable should fix the filenames.
The PortableApps.com approach to making things portable is by saving registry keys etc. to config files and more importantly, by changing paths to compensate for changing mountpoints. It should catch this path too. Kovid's calibre-portable uses relative paths from the top folder, which doesn't fix filenames, and I have no idea if it makes the adding books folder relative. It probably should, or be fixed to do so, in the event of it being in the Calibre Portable folder tree, in which case Kovid's version, too, should work. |
