A quick google shows that markdown files can be converted to epub
files using pandoc tool. I can remember doing that. <br>
But I'm not sure how pandoc would handle a series of files or know
what order they are in. <br>
<br>
Can anyone on this list help? If not it may be one for the 80cc
mailing list. <br>

For pandoc to export to epub(2 and 3) all the source text files must
be assembled onto one single file. But it is simple a
concatenation.<br>
Something like: $ for i in folder/*.md; do cat $i >> book.md;
done<br>
If you have footnotes or metadata in each markdown, scripts have to
reorganize them in new file, but it is also simple.<br>
<br>
In pandoc's conversion to epub, you must indicate at what level you
want the chapters to be generate: heading 1 or 2.<br>
But it is essentially that.<br>
<br>
I have assembled a series of simple scripts, triggered by a
makefile, to perform this (and other) conversion.<br>
Fell welcome to use<br>

I think I saw you were using jekyll to generate pages. <br>
If so, these links may also help. <a moz-do-not-send="true"

I think that may be easier by exporting an epub from Booktype and
feeding it to pandoc to create mark up. <br>
<br>
If you manage to create an epub let me know and we can test the
next stages. <br>
<br>
nice one<br>
