epub is xhtml+ wrapper

• pyre 14y ago
  If you're targeting grep as a tool to operate on your data, then HTML isn't the best 'raw' format as grep isn't HTML-aware. It can't ignore markup, or translate encoded values (e.g. & => &).

    But ePub as a format is open and well understood, and there are XHTML parsers in every language you might care about.
