[Plugin] PunctuationDumben
Requirements
Plugin Type: Edit GPLv3 License Python Requirements: 2.7+, 3.4+, Tkinter - eg: sudo apt-get install python3-tk, or other platforms https://stackoverflow.com/a/74607246 OS Requirements: Windows, OSX or Linux Description This is a Punctuation dumbening plugin. It's basically the reverse of the PunctuationSmarten plug-in, by DiapDealer. It has minimal configuration -- just pick the files and run. I read eBooks on older devices (webOS tablets, circa 2011) that can't render fancy new HTML entities for things like smart quotes. They just end up garbled. This plug-in replaces the entities for smart quotes, ellipsis, and other common modern niceties with their simpler equivalents, readying content for consumption on older devices. ** NOTE: this plugin periodically checks for updated versions by connecting to github (where the source is maintained) when run (at most once every 12 hours.) ** Installation * Select Manage Plugins from the Plugins menu. In the dialog box, select either the Bundled Python or External Python (Python should be installed on your computer to run this plugin externally). * Click Add Plugin and select PunctuationDumben_vx.x.x.zip . This will load and install the plugin into Sigil The source for this plugin can be found here: https://github.com/codepoet80/punctu...n-sigil-plugin Usage * From the Sigil menus, choose Plugins > Edit > PunctuationDumben * In the pop-up, select the files to simplify * Press OK, and wait a few seconds -- that's it!

As creator of the thread you can always edit the first post of your thread to add things, change links, update things etc. Plugin developers normally just update that first post as they desire and use the remainder of the thread to do support when questions are asked.

As a new member, they may not be able to edit their own past posts (after more than a couple of minutes) until they get a few more under their belt. It's an anti-spam measure.
Now I wish I'd updated my plugin to PyQt/PySide before it was used as a template for another. ![]() |

Ya, I seem to be lacking edit permissions. Not to worry. Thanks for the good work DiapDealer :-)

You'll gain edit permissions soon enough, I'm sure. In the meantime, I've added the link to your github repo to the first post.
