In the Calibre plug-in:
Open the XRay generator as usual, then specify a filename in the "Aliases file" box. Then run the generation as usual. The generator will create a text file which has the character's names, one on each line. Open the file with a text editor and, for each character you want to have aliases, add a | character and then the aliases. eg for "Frankenstein" I have the following alias: Victor Frankenstein|Victor I can't remember what happens if you want multiple aliases for the same character, I think it's comma-separated, so you'd have Victor Frankenstein|Victor,Vic or something like that. Then re-run the XRay generator - this time, instead of creating the file, it will read in the aliases you've added. |

Calibre plug-in does its job, but when i put the file in kindle, the x-ray button is still grey, when I put the file which you have created in stand-alone, it works fine.. So i decided to use the command-line version, but can't figure out how.. Can you help me with that? I promise, it will be the last help, i will ask)) I know I'm getting enoying, I'm trying to figure all out by myself, but seems like my knowledge is not enough. |

I just run it from a command window as, for example: Code:
XRayBuilder.exe -s http://www.shelfari.com/books/4283291/Frankenstein "D:\Documents\Calibre Library\Shelley, Mary Wollstonecraft\Frankenstein (14)\Frankenstein - Shelley, Mary Wollstonecraft.mobi" -a "D:\Document\Calibre Library\frankenstein.aliases" |

I posted an example command in post 366.
How are you launching XRayBuilder? Are you just double-clicking on the .exe file? |

OK, that won't work. You need to start a command window and type in the command.
To start a command window, the easiest way is probably to go up a level in Windows Explorer, then press Shift and right-click on the folder containing the XRay Builder exe. This should give you an option "Open command window here". Select that and it should open a window in which you can type your commands. |

I've run the command window successfully, I typed the command following your example.
XRayBuilder.exe -s http://www.shelfari.com/books/11106/A-Feast-for-Crows "C:\Users\Zura\Desktop\Martin, George R. R_\Feast For Crows, A\Feast For Crows, A - George R. R.Martin.mobi" -a C:\Users\Zura\Desktop\2 And I got this |

It looks like you need quote marks around the path to the .mobi file - I don't see any in the screenshot.
