Is there a plugin for calibre to search inside books?
>>
Back way around it, but I believe if you convert books to text with calibre you can search the directory for specific words via normal windows search. I know it works for .csv
>>

in unix you can use the command line:
find -type f | xargs grep -n "text to search"
>>
>>7694005
double click on the book in the calibre list, it'll open up a virtual book reader, then just ctrl+f, then search whatever text you're looking for.
>>
>>7694046
you can use grep on windows via cygwin or prepackaged binary
