Bug Fixes

Interface in 0.6.41

SONY reader. More generally, take page margins into account when rescaling
images to fit in the selected output profile.
Release: 0.6.41 [19 Feb, 2010]

Bug Fixes

Closes tickets: 4849 [External link]

EXTH header, since there are apparently MOBI readers that use the title from
the PalmDoc header in preference to the title from the EXTH header.

Closes tickets: 4887 [External link]

Stanza.

New Features
* Ability to perform exact match and regular expression based
searches.
Closes tickets: 4830 [External link]
"You can now perform exact match searches by prefixing your search term
with an =. So for example, tag:=fiction will match all tags named fiction, but
not tags named non-fiction. Similarly, you can use regular expression based
searches by prefixing the search term by ~."

CBZ/CBR
