I am using your HTML editor to produce a kindle e-book and had some questions.

Is the paid version version faster than the free version? Is there a feature comparison between the two?

When you double click a word, sometimes it highlights from the cursor to the left, but not the whole word.

Is there a way to wrap long lines for editing, without breaking the physical lines up?

Are there plans to support kindle codes (as an option?) since the current crop of kindle e-book editors really sucks. Kindle doesn't support many options, but they do offer a few things different (like page break) that would be handy.

The next book is likely to have somewhere around 28,000 lines and as slow as the free one is, I will likely need something faster. I am willing to buy the paid version but want to know before I take the plunge.

I used to use an editor from Semware (from Alpharetta) that may be an option if you can't handle that big a doc. The Semware Editor is a great product who's market was stunted by the IDE products that everyone came out with in the 1990's . There is nothing it can't do, and it could handle huge files quickly.

I just prefer to not have to re-invent the wheel for kindle.

Thanks!

Hiya Stu,

I'll let you read the information that I found in less than 10 seconds when opening the page with the Free HTML info:

Let us know if you can't find it, but it shouldn't take much for you to see the differences by reading just a short bit of the info.

So the answer to one of my questions is :

cool functions like CSS Menu Designer, Website Color Schemer, and FTP Upload are only in the full version.

So it does not have any "speed-up" features in the paid version?

If a 3000 line file takes 18 seconds to save, how long would it take to save a 28,000 line file?

We do not add any limitations like that. Just features only. Performance would be the same in the free and paid.

I guess, assuming a perfect world, and it can handle a 28000 line long file, that means it will take about 3 minutes to load or save the file?

Thanks!

Save and upload times all really depend on system resources and bandwidth available. But yes, it can handle it.

As a thought Stu have you considered splitting it up in the first instance and then stitching it together after it is in beta.
Another thought, as 95% of the content is text why not write it first then commit it to code after. A word processor may handle the heavy lifting better in the first instance.

I just Goggled the task of Kindle writing and if I was to embark on that task I would set myself up correctly. Recently I changed to producing pdf help files, to do so I purchased a pdf editor. Horses for courses

Which editor did you purchase?
