Guiguts wasn't designed to convert existing texts. It's purpose is to help a DP PPer turn the output of the DP rounds into the final product seen on PG.

I see. I was told the output of DP was text and the html generated from it.
Now I gather DP uses some sort of proprietary internal markup and can produce HTML without having to produce TXT? Am I right?
I'm also very interested in the answer to this question - and assuming the answer is "Yes, DP has an internal format that is used before the final .txt is rendered to PG", my follow-up question becomes "How can I get access to the ebooks in this 'internal markup' format?" I'm hoping dearly that the answer isn't "We throw it away when we're done..." _______________________________________________ gutvol-d mailing list gutvol-d@lists.pglaf.org http://lists.pglaf.org/mailman/listinfo/gutvol-d
