Nor I, I have never used the epub toolchains. Certainly try Asciidoctor, it is in active development, which this implementation isn't. Asciidoctor tends to make less use of the tollchains, I don't think it uses them for anything but PDF but it is developing its own for that too, although its still in Alpha. And its way faster :) Cheers Lex > > > > On Wednesday, November 22, 2017 at 11:02:55 AM UTC-6, Shep wrote: >> >> OK, followed your link and tried this, which seems to me should have done >> the trick: >> >> a2x -fepub -dbook -adocinfo --xsltproc-opts "--stringparam generate.toc >> \"book toc\"" book.txt >> >> >> But I get this error: >> >> a2x: ERROR: missing resource: /Users/AJTSheppard/Documents/Writing/Book - >> Goodbye Google/Gmail/bk01-toc.html >> >> >> Here are some more parts the --verbose version (which is very long): >> >> ... >> >> a2x: executing: "xsltproc" --stringparam generate.toc "book toc" >> --stringparam callout.graphics 0 --stringparam navig.graphics 0 >> --stringparam admon.textlabel 1 --stringparam admon.graphics 0 --stringparam >> toc.section.depth 1 --stringparam chunk.section.depth 0 >> "/opt/local/etc/asciidoc/docbook-xsl/epub.xsl" >> "/Users/AJTSheppard/Documents/Writing/Book - Goodbye Google/Gmail/book.xml" >> >> >> Writing OEBPS/pr01.html for preface >> Writing OEBPS/ch01.html for chapter(_introduction) >> Writing OEBPS/ch02.html for chapter(non-an-all-or-nothing-thing) >> Writing OEBPS/ch03.html for chapter(_a_very_brief_history_of_google) >> Writing OEBPS/ch04.html for >> chapter(_a_list_of_google_products_and_services) >> Writing OEBPS/ch05.html for >> chapter(_google_terms_of_service_amp_privacy_policy) >> Writing OEBPS/ch06.html for chapter(_voice_and_face_recognition) >> Writing OEBPS/ch07.html for chapter(_how_email_works) >> Writing OEBPS/pt01.html for part(_reasons_to_say_goodbye) >> Writing OEBPS/ch08.html for chapter(gameplan) >> Writing OEBPS/ch09.html for chapter(step1) >> Writing OEBPS/ch10.html for chapter(step2) >> Writing OEBPS/ch11.html for chapter(step3) >> Writing OEBPS/ch12.html for chapter(step4) >> Writing OEBPS/ch13.html for chapter(step5) >> Writing OEBPS/ch14.html for chapter(step6) >> Writing OEBPS/pt02.html for >> part(_a_step_by_step_guide_to_replacing_gmail_with_something_better) >> Writing OEBPS/apa.html for appendix(A1) >> Writing OEBPS/apb.html for appendix(A2) >> Writing OEBPS/apc.html for appendix(A3) >> Writing OEBPS/pt03.html for part(_resources) >> Writing OEBPS/co01.html for colophon(_book_description_back_cover) >> Writing OEBPS/index.html for book >> Writing OEBPS/toc.ncx >> Writing OEBPS/../OEBPS/content.opf >> Writing OEBPS/cover.html for mediaobject >> Writing OEBPS/../META-INF/container.xml >> >> >> ... >> a2x: finding resources in: /Users/AJTSheppard/Documents/Writing/Book - >> Goodbye Google/Gmail/book.epub.d/OEBPS/pt02.html >> a2x: finding resources in: /Users/AJTSheppard/Documents/Writing/Book - >> Goodbye Google/Gmail/book.epub.d/OEBPS/pt03.html >> a2x: ERROR: missing resource: /Users/AJTSheppard/Documents/Writing/Book - >> Goodbye Google/Gmail/bk01-toc.html >> >> >> >> On Tuesday, November 21, 2017 at 5:11:50 AM UTC-6, Lex Trotman wrote: >>> >>> On 21 November 2017 at 20:58, Shep <ajtsh...@gmail.com> wrote: >>> > Here's my Asciidoc markdown, minimal-book.adoc: >>> > >>> > = The Book Title >>> > >>> > == The first chapter >>> > Nec vitae mus fringilla eu vel pede sed pellentesque.
