e-Books\Author Name\Book Name

eg:

e-Books\Haggard, H. Rider\King Solomon's Mines

It's a heck of a lot easier to select that in a GUI than to type it on the command line, getting all the quotes in the right places.
Actually, with the command line, you can use command completion to get there very very easily.

Let's take the second example and say it is on drive D

D:
CD \e-b [tab] \ hag [tab] \king [tab] [enter]

and then you'll be at D:\e-Books\Haggard, H. Rider\King Solomon's Mines>

But if you do hit tab and the wrong directory pops up, hit tab again and it will move to the next match. Very easy and to me, easier then the gui to dig that deep. And as long as you have ConvertLIT in your path, you'll be all set.
