> Calibre can perform format conversions, although it does so automatically. In order to edit the result, you must convert it first and then open the result in Sigil. That is not too time-consuming, although it would help matters if Calibre's conversion function could be called from within Sigil at import-time — as it stands, Calibre's main focus is indexing one's ebook library, which makes converting a single file tedious.

Do you know about the ebook-convert tool which is packaged
with calibre?

Converting a single file is just a function of invoking that, no need for the GUI.
