File masks don't work on Windows

Yes, using directory instead of mask works, thanks! So this is not an issue for me anymore :)
Btw, when using mask the program returns error at line 55:
inputInfo, err := os.Stat(input)
Out of curiosity, does this line work on unix if input is "*.epub"?

Type dir and see if there are actually epub files in the current directory. If not, then cd to it. If there are files but it still doesn't work, try using PowerShell instead.

The same error from PowerShell. By the way, if I try non-existing file name, the error is slighly different:
Error: scan input "1.epub": CreateFile 1.epub: The system cannot find the file specified.

This might be because of the 4-character epub extension on Windows (meaning that wildcards don't work as expected) . As a workaround, you could convert the current dir (.) to ./converted (it will ignore the converted files).

Edit: it is.
Edit 2: Try *.epu*.

Yes, that works on everything but Windows.

You are correct that the error comes from there, but it's a red herring. The issue is because cmd doesn't expand it correctly (the wildcard processing is done by the shell).

Does *.epu* work?

[AlexeiA]

Does .epu work?

No, cmd and PowerShell always pass wildcards as-is :(

[pgaskin]

That's interesting. I wasn't aware of that before (I don't use Windows much right now). I might add wildcard handling directly if it's running on Windows.
