Are there good command-line tools that accomplish this? It looks like Booktype expects you to edit in a browser. I know there are work-arounds for this but really I just want to edit in Vim then send files to some processor.

Calibre has some command-line tools: http://manual.calibre-ebook.com/cli/cli-index.html

The easybook project (posted on HN recently) is also a command-line utility: http://easybook-project.org/
