Hi all,
I am new to Daisy. I have installed and launched it without problems,
and done some basic experimenting with new documents etc. All works
nicely.
However, the main reason for using Daisy was for us to better manage a
pile of existing, hand-written HTML documents.
They are about 300 HTML files, with frequent links referring from one to
the other, and some basic markup.
How do I get these into the Daisy repository?
I found the export/import utility, but this is only suited for
daisy-to-daisy importing.
As far as I can see, no importing mechanism exists that allows a set of
simple, plain HTML files to be imported quickly into Daisy, rewriting
hyperlinks where appropriate. This would involve creating an empty
document with corresponding document-ID for each of the files, importing
the existing file into this new document, and rewriting all the links
inside it to new urls, to reflect the new document-ID of the linked
documents.
Does anyone know whether such a feature exists somewhere?
Probably nothing rocket science, but before I re-invent the wheel etc
etc...
If nothing exists, any ideas on how to best handle this are appreciated!
Thanks in advance
Geert
