Hi all,

I was wondering if there is a way to create multi-language mobipocket books (preferably with mobiperl). I'm thinking, for instance, of bilingual editions, with the original and the translation, and of course, I would like some portion of the book to be set as language1 (so that a dictionary search would look in language1 dictionaries) and some other portion as language2... So actually, what I would like is some mark-up in the HTML, if possible.

If, as I fear, it is only possible to set a single language, I guess I would set for a null language... How can this be done with mobi2mobi?
