gwolf / kindleclip Goto Github PK

For some reason my Kindle Paperwhite creates clippings headers that looks like this:

- Your Bookmark at location 151 | Added on Saturday, 9 May 2015 04:58:57

This causes the program to exit with a parsing error in read_kind_place_tstamp.

When I am trying to start application I got following error:
/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in require': cannot load such file -- gettext (LoadError) from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:inrequire'
from /usr/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/kindleclip/ui.rb:33:in <top (required)>' from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:inrequire'
from /usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in require' from /usr/bin/kindleclip:35:in

I use Kindle Paperwhyte in Italian language, "My Clippings.txt" is written in Italian language and kindleclip (v0.5 from Debian repository) doesn't work with it.
Error is: "There was an error parsing the requested file. Please make sure you present a file in the Kindle's "My Clippings.txt" format."

Best regards

There is another kind of clipping that you can use in newspaper articles, it copies the entire text of the article and creates a heading that looks like this:

- Clip This Article at Location 4460 | Added on Thursday, 1 October 2015 09:37:21

This causes an error when parsing the header, much like #2.
