Output in PDF is a good idea because it will definitely outlast BBeB, and may turn up on future ebook readers.

Output in formats other than lrf would make this tool useful for other devices. We do in fact expect at least two new 6" e-ink devices in the near future, which will need a tool like this one for reading pdf. Both will be reading mobipocket format, so output in prc would surely be appreciated. The Iliad also reads mobipocket, if I'm not mistaken. Besides that, there are other electronic gadgets with small screens that could benefit from your neat little program (what formats do they read?).

Btw, cacapee, thanks for this great program. I use it practically every day. Thanks also for the linux build. I bet the OSX people are getting impatient... I hope they can run wine at least.
