I did a thing.

2013-08-28

A while back I wanted to read some F.A.R.M.S[1] stuff on my kindle, but I wasn't able to find ebook versions of the books. So, I decided to write something to fetch the books from the website and build them into ebooks.

Turns out, someone already[2] did the heavy lifting, but it was written in Python and had a dependency on tinylib, which is a real chore to get working correctly on a Mac. Plus, I was jonesing for a Go[3] project. Thus was born:

GetFARMSEpub.go[4]

I haven't done much to it since I pushed it to github...mainly because it works well enough for me and nobody else has ever used it (enough to ask for features, anyway).

Ta-da.
