If you install the calibre source in C:\calibre on a Windows machine and then set CALIBRE_DEVELOP_FROM to C:\calibre, will ebook-convert.exe also pull its code from the python scripts, or is it just the calibre GUI that will do that?

Also, is there a way to find out which python files ebook-convert is using? Like, if you're converting from an OEB book's OPF file to a Mobipocket file, what sequence of scripts does ebook-convert run? I've added a few print lines to __init__.py and other files in some of the ebook directories corresponding to those formats, in an attempt to see when those formats start up, but haven't seen anything show up yet.

Thanks for any help!
