Once that was there, when I tried "make lm" from the command line, it DID make lit2mobi.exe successfully, and it WAS a Linux binary.
By moving that to /usr/local/bin and renaming it to "lit2mobi" I was able to get it to work the way one would usually expect in a UNIX environment.

I actually think you are the first one that have tested this. I am glad that the Makefile did not contain any Windows specific things so it worked on Linux also.
I think the following would have worked:
Code:
cp -r lit2mobi Palm MobiPerl /usr/local/bin
The scripts like lit2mobi is written so that they include the directory containing the script in the search path for additional perl modules.
