htmlbbeb

IntroductionThis code is the result of my efforts to buid a html->bbeb converter that respects most formatting. The program handles images, links and much of the formatting done with css. At this point, it is still pretty much an alpha, but I was able to convert many html ebooks to a ... [More] reasonable-looking lrf document. In fact, the program just creates a .lrs file which may be later translated into a .lrf file using a suitable application such as MSH_LRSParser. I have not included MSH_LRSParser in the distribution of version 0.1 since I was not certain about its standing copyright-wise. However, the author has recently made it clear to me that MSH_LRSParser is freeware and so I will be include it in the next releases. On the other hand, the provided GUI front-end may be used to convert from lrs to lrf automatically, provided you put MSH_LRSParser.exe into the same directory where htmlbbebgui was put. Included in the source distribution are two main files: htmlbbeb.py, which is a command line application, and htmlbbebgui.py, a GUI front-end written with PyQt / Qt. I also put together a 'windows-only' installer with everything you need to run the application for those non-programmers who want to try it hassle-free. Source CodeThe main application was written in Python (Python 2.4 or newer should work fine) and the source distribution contains all files necessary to run it. The command line version requires PIL (not included), elementtree and beautifulsoup (included). The GUI front end requires Qt4.2.2 and PyQt (not included). You might also want to refer to the usage information for the command line version. Windows InstallerFor those wanting to try the application on windows and do not have the pre-requisites installed, I have also provided a windows installer in the downloads tab. [Less]
