If you want to "explode" a DRM-free MOBI (e.g. the result of mobidedrm), I recommend the python command mobi2oeb which comes with Calibre. If you have Calibre installed, then you should be able to invoke mobi2oeb from the command line. Its primary advantage is that it handles both compression levels. An "OEB" ebook is HTML, images, and a .opf file (just as you get from exploding a LIT ebook using ConvertLIT). Unless the MOBI is already in its own directory, you should give mobi2oeb a directory name (e.g. Author_Title) to hold the output:
Code:
mobi2oeb -o Author_Title Author_Title.mobi

IT WORKED BEAUTIFULLY!!! THANKS!!!!
I already had Calibre installed so I just ran the command and now I have the book in HTML format !!! Thanks again!!
