Adding HTML file type

Open Liamgrbd opened this issue 10 years ago • 7 comments

In addition to epub, mobi and plaintext, I'd love to have html as a possible file type too.

You want all chapters in one HTML file? What for?

Html files can be view quickly within Dropbox instead of having to open epub files in an ebook reader app.

You can actually rename .epub to .zip and extract it. The chapters are actually HTML files.

Well, that would be plenty of work instead of one-step downloading an html then store it in Dropbox. And the fic wouldn't be in one single file.

I have friends who archive thousands of fics in a dropbox folder then share it to the community. Which is why it's nice to be able to quickly view the fic within there.

You can also view PDFs on Dropbox directly, the format of which FicSave does have an option for.

That said, I'll add HTML some point down the line but it's not a huge priority at the moment.

I understand. Thank you!

Excuse me in advance, but do you have any plans about adding HTML option? It would've been convenient.
