Description

Hi Kovid, is it possible to implement the surveillance of a download folder to import ebooks that are downloaded to this folder without any further effort on my part.

I am downloading a few books from MR and it would be a lot easier not to import every single book but rather have it done by calibre on its own.

It's possible, but a pain to do in a cross platform manner. Easier would be to implement support for drag and drop of URLs

Support for drag and drop of URLs would be great if it works with the attached files at Mobile Read?.

Hi Kovid, are you going to implement support for drag and drop of URLs?

Or is it already done and I didn't noticed it? ;-)

Not yet, too many higher priority things at the moment.
