Re: [dev] reading an epub book with less: adventures in text processing
Rather late to the party and I've already forgotten the initial email. Nevertheless, I'll give the program I most use: epub2txt.[0] It's not perfect, but compared to calibre's ebook-convert, and everything else I found in C in github or codeberg or gitlab, it's the best. A once-over with an editor capable of multiple selection and edition is the most I've had to do. Faulty output includes, say, only a single letter rather than a whole word capitalised or within '\e[...m' and '\e[0m'. Protip; Run it with -w 0 to get 'natural' paragraphs.

Re: [dev] organizing programs
I use a a a timer zsh script that has a timer/countdown and alarm options, the former of which can easily serve as a pomodo technique utility. There was a todo dash script using dmenu, if you input a new item it gets added, otherwise an existed is removed from the file. Can share if interested. Pen and paper work best for me when it comes to tasks.

[dev] surf ephemeral not switching(?)
Hey, Usually I clean out ~/.surf/cache/localstorage for all but 2 sites. I found out the emphemeral option could acomplish just that, and setting up peruri options with all 3 permutations (each being same priority) turned out to not work. It's either on, or off, as evidenced by the files being created or not, and the userscript not accessing (or not being able to access) the locally stored settings in the above dir. I make'd surf with a new keyboard command to toggle ephemeral, but to no avail. Am I missing something, or is this unexpected behavior?
