I hope this is the right place for this query...Can anyone direct me toward instructions for using the Windows executables for the Mobiperl tools? Something is going very very wrong when I try it on my WinXP system.

I downloaded and unzipped mobiperl-win-0.0.41.zip. When I click on mobi2html.exe, a window appears, shows a message (looks like usage description and list of options), and then vanishes before I can read it all. Dragging and dropping a non-DRM Mobipocket file from the Baen Free Library onto the mobi2html.exe icon also causes a window to appear with a different message (I saw the book title and author in there); that window also vanishes within a few seconds. No .html file appears.

Do I need to install something else to make mobi2html work?
