Hello. To the best of my knowledge, Calibre cannot be made accessible without a total rewrite, as the toolkit used to display the text is not accessible in itself. In windows, and I strongly suspect on the Mac's terminal as well, however, the command line tools are accessible and fairly easy to use. I hope that's of some use. Aman
