ebook-convert for OS X

Is there a compiled version of ebook-convert that can run natively on OS X?

At the moment I am using the Windows version under Parallels, but switching back and forward is a hassle.

Yes.

After you install calibre on OS X, run it once so that everything's initialized.

Open a terminal session, type 'ebook-convert' plus your arguments, and away you go.
