There is no plugin to do this that I know of. Personally, I'd rather read it as the author wrote it. If it'swritting in US style, leave it. If it's written in UK style, leave it. I can read either and understand.

The only thing I'd prefer is the US way of using double quotes vs the UK way of using single quotes. Now a plugin to fix that would be very welcome.

They're translated from Japanese, so it's just what the translator thinks they mean, rather than anything on US vs UK.

Both Sigil and Calibre Editor have a Saved Searches feature that allows you automate search and replace operations.

For Sigil you'll need to reformat your list as follows:

Code:
[search_entries]
1\Name=Anglicise/Anglicize
1\Find=\\baccessorise\\b
1\Replace=accessorize
2\Name=Anglicise/Anglicize
2\Find=\\baccessorised\\b
2\Replace=accessorized
3\Name=Anglicise/Anglicize
3\Find=\\baccessorises\\b
3\Replace=accessorizes
4\Name=Anglicise/Anglicize
4\Find=\\baccessorising\\b
4\Replace=accessorizing
size=4
(The above example file is only for the first four entries.)

Save the Saved Searches file with an .ini extension, import it in the Saved Searches dialog box, select the search group, click Load Search and Replace All. (You'll also need to select Regex and All HTML Files.)

That's incredibly helpful, thanks very much for this.
