The todo file probably makes it harder for people wanting to fix things and/or know of good things that need done. We should make everything in that file an issue.

Pyxpdf has provided us with nothing but problems building, both on Windows and Mac, so I vote it's time to switch. The question just remains, to what. I would sat tetlib, but that's paid, and for a lot of money.

Putting this here as an issue, because otherwise I'll forget.
We need to make the save as and open with dialogs only show supported file types. E.g., in open, just show epub, mobi, pdf, etc files. This would remove the need for that Quinread doesn't support this dialog, too.

There's an issue with some epub books where spans were used while in a paragraph. This results in characters being scattered across lines. We should add code to put spaces, not \n if in a paragraph. At least this way, it's more readable.

If we enable word wrap in the text field, goto line is off. It counts the words wrapping as a line. It goes to the number you type in, but fills in the wrong value for the field. Probably because I didn't know what I was doing when I wrote that bit of code and it's hackish.

We already switched to PyMuPDF to hopefully assist with this, but I need to actually try and build it.

Pandoc works, but I think it'll just be easier if all the user has to do to build the docs is pip install txt2tags.
