>There are a few reasons why I can't really get into a detailed response to this right now, but I just wanted to note that I'm not against the concept in principle, and if you and others here want to keep working on it, you go right ahead. My take is "I ain't doin' that," not "don't be doin' that." :)

Awesome, it's nice to have permission!

>Feel free to cadge the stylesheet I've been using...

Not quite ready for a stylesheet yet, I want to get some good structure in place first. The next thing I need to research is whether or not Calibre handles the new "HTML5" tags well (article, aside, section), or if I should just use divs.

But I'll totally use your stylesheet once I get the structure down!

>If you want, I can share some internal notes I've thrown together for the rest of the crew in re working with said stylesheet.

If those are handy, that'd be great!

>In particular, manually sorting out all the hyphenated emphases in the old files (why, oh why, did I decide to do that that way?) is way too much of a faff for me to want to bother with it.

I actually added a few lines of TTL for this. Aside from some <i> tags that remain open in a few of the stories, it's worked pretty well. I'll have to manually fix those <i> tags after I'm good and done with the script.

I never figured out a way to do the two-column credits with lyrics thing in non-fixed text either, which is more or less why I stopped doing that.

I'm gonna tackle that LAST. ;)

Anyway, I've also updated the files behind the hyperlinks in the first post! The "input" file has a new .TTL script, and the "output" file has the HTML results! They're better than what I posted a few days ago, but it's a work-in-progress!
