Kovid,
The results are a tad strange. Allow me to explain. To insure that I always use the same command when I process a book I type it out in a text editor then do a copy and paste into the terminal. With that as a premise, and to be sure that the program hung I copied and pasted the following command line into my terminal and hit a return:

html2lrf --verbose --force-page-break-before-tag='page-break' --blank-after-para --base-font-size=8 creeds-000.html

And terminal hung as I reproted previously.

I then entered the following command were the file creeds-002,html is Chapter one of the book.

html2lrf --verbose creeds-002-html

and darned if the program didn't run.

so then I entered

html2lrf --verbose --page-break-before-tag='page-break' creeds-002.html

and it worked, so then I tried

html2lrf -- verbose --blank-after-para creeds-002.html

and again the program worked so I tried

html2lrf --verbose --page-break-before-tag='page-break' creeds-000.html

and

html2lrf -- verbose --blank-after-para creeds-000.html

thinking it might have been something in the original file that was the difficulty. Wasn't so. So I finally re-entered my original command

html2lrf --verbose --force-page-break-before-tag='page-break' --blank-after-para --base-font-size=8 creeds-000.html

And it now works as well, the long and the short of it is that sine I used just the base command on a very simple file I can no longer reproduce the problem.
