Legadon 0.3
The main Problem with the ebooks in ePub are the special characters used in the HTML which cannot be translated directly to chars which are available on Amiga. For example there are different kind of quotation marks in standard UTF-8 (slightly bend one, upper and lower marks and so on) but in standard charset on Amiga there is obviously only one kind (straight upper quotation marks). Same with dashes, there are shorter, longer and so on. on conversation the routine will transform these chars to a question mark. I added a little routine to replace some of these chars to the closest replacement in the standard Amiga charset.
Same goes with some accents over letters, most exist, but some not, not much i can do there, if they don’t exist in the Amiga Charset. I imporoved it a bit and checked all my books, also i got two more books from a user in french where are more „strange“ characters inside. All but one i was able to replace with the corresponding character. The one is a „ç“. It does not exist in my text, but the ebook has it seems like the XML reader already removes it as unknown or so. Not much I can do there.
I also fixed some minor bugs and a small memory leak.
