MHT files are Internet Explorer's Web archive format: it stores an HTML page and all its companion files (images, CSS, scripts...) in a unique file which is surprisingly following a standard: Mime (e-mail format). It is a bit bloated (text, using Base64 for binary files) but very handy.
Not in the habits for Microsoft to use a non-proprietary, non-binary format, a good point for them.
For some reason (because it is invented by Microsoft? because it is not standardized?), Mozilla don't support it in Firefox. Well, not before FF 3.0 (for the end of year!). But there is an extension adding such support.

Note that it is little bugy when converting URL directly using "Add Url" button.... You should covert using "Add File" button to convert local files.

Add url works if http:// is omited from url. Thats because I set the file name to be the same as url, so <!-- w -->http://www.google.com<!-- m --> is invalid name.

Don't ask why I didn't fix that up so far...

its width or length ?

length ! I converted entire html books. It will fail if you don't have enought memory. Seting out to bmp may provide more room for large html files. The bigest picture I got was about about 200MB for 100 or so html pages...

The htmlimg currently doesn't work with command line.
Batch mode doesn't have to do anythng with cmd line. It is the feature to convert number of pages with single action and you can do that now by adding the files in the list. You can save the list (right click and choose save) and open it. This means that you could automate such thing for the moment.

I may find time to change this in the future.

However, I have a quick solution for you with another program. Check out the Url2Bmp. It has CLI interface and it otherwise works exactly the same as Html2Img with same features.
