Extract Mobi Max Location value

[Snoweuph]

Hi,

I'm trying to extract the Max Location value from a .mobi to use it in combination with a .han file from my kindle to let a script decide if I finished reading that manga.

I just can't seem to get the max Location info extracted from the .mobi, any good suggestions?

The wiki page: https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Page_numbers
and the thread: https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=159357
give location number as:

floor(a * 2 / 300 + 1)

where a is the byte locatation in the RAWML file for the book. So for the maximum location a is the total number of bytes in the RAWML file. Use:

kindleunpack -d book_file_name

to produce the assembled_text.dat RAWML file

Alternatively, the length is given in the p_contentSize column in the row for the book in the sqlite database cc.db somewhere under /var on the kindle.
