Import table of contents

Open ShadowMarter opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

It is really annoying to read nonfiction without being able to choose different sections in a TOC. Currently, the chapters are just orded by word number. I know Smartbook, calibre and other software manage to import the TOC from the epub file - would that be possible for linguacafe as well?

Hi!

Sorry for the late response.

I am planning to rename chapters to pages inside linguacafe, since multiple people suggested that it would be a more reasonable name for the current system, since current chapters are recommended to be short. And after that I want to add some kind of system that would let users manually tag starting pages of chapters, or could be imported from ebooks automatically.

Thanks! Another suggestion - add an option to export the sentences with the words. Right now, if you do not click on the "anki" button and export manually, the sentences aren't exported.

Should this feature be implemented with a more general bookmark system like mentioned in #42 or were you thinking of a separate system for tagging sections from the table of contents? From what I've read of the specification, the latter choice makes some sense. But I think using a general set of bookmarks would probably be easier to implement and be more multipurpose.
