Maybe better title: HTML and epub (or vice versa)


  • the "web trinities": URL, HTTP, HTML / HTML, CSS, JS
  • XHTML/RDF... and the so-called semantic web... (and relations to the (historical) XML community)
  • Metadata (in SVG)
  • EPUB
  • pandoc
  • Regular expressions, grep, sed?

some "old school" tricks worth understanding...

Example from raspberry pi script:

sed -i 's| init=/usr/lib/raspi-config/init_resize\.sh||' /boot/cmdline.txt
whiptail --yesno "COntinue" 20 20
