the kindle should have name-replacement built in.

I keep having to pirate books, hacking them to remote certain triggering names, and reuploading them.

maybe I should just write a script to automate this

I wouldn't have to pirate it but amazon wants to DRM all their books, even when I'm just here to rename one guy
It is pretty hilarious that I can't edit the book I own because the DRM thinks I'm trying to steal it, and the fix for this is simply to steal it and edit the stolen copy instead
Don't buy DRMed content, kids: just steal it instead, you'll have more ability to fold, spindle, and mutilate it, and you'll have it forever.
epubs are zips, btw. unzip them and you can easily edit their contents
@foone same as OpenDocument formats.

...and Microsoft Office Open XML files.

Don't tell it to Microsoft fans. They get visibly upset.

@bayindirh @root42 @foone and Keynote, Pages, and Numbers files on the Apple side…
@juandesant @root42 @foone
They were traditionally folders (Apple still uses tons of folders disguised as files). They started to zip them to make them easier to move to cloud and upload them.
