Thanks for the heads up! It will be the next install on my list. I really hate having to also use that cygwin1.dll.

Also, I do hope you noticed that the compiled EXE is in the archive anyway so you don't need to compile it again :-)
First thing I did after unzipping your file was to rename your executable so that I could get it compiled. It was almost a knee-jerk reaction since I've done this a thousand times before; download someone else's code and compile it! I still haven't used your .exe because I'm too busy solving my (unimportant) compile problem. Boy do I have my priorites all screwed up!

I plan to work on PDFRead in the next few weeks, and one of the first things I will do is use this instead of directly using COM from Python -- which should reduce the installation size quite a bit.
Great News! Will you host it on SourceForge as I think the DEV HUB here doesn't allow co-developers (hint-hint) as suggested by DaleDe.

I think you can take a similiar approach for the html2mobi which is done in Perl, I think...
I think I'll wait for you to "pioneer" that method, and then I will follow (copy) with something similar in Mobi2IMP!

We (actually Ret) just got the EBW1150 proxy browser working (check here) so I hope this will aid in your proxy browser/librarian effort!

We may need a "Developer's Corner" sub-forum in the Fictionwise forum now...

Thanks for all your help keeping the .imp format alive!!!
