REM when running of a local hard disk if you want to get the
REM level of control this batch file provides.
REM - Calibre2 Location of program files

To avoid needing Calibre to be set in the search path, ensure that Calibre Program Files is current directory when starting.
The following test falls back to using search path . This folder can be populated by copying the Calibre2 folder from an existing installation or by installing direct to here.
