[Dtb-talk] A question about preferred book formatting

[T. Joseph Carter]

Greg,

I have done my best to support index tone navigation as well as 
original tape level navigation.  Unfortunately, I haven't got a good 
way to automatically detect this, so it's still a by-hand process for 
titles which feature such tones.

While understanding that navigation by chapter, most of these being fiction works, is the preferred method for doing it this is not always an option as it would require us listening to the whole book to find the chapters in many cases.
