That's because it doesn't use a flexible argument parser like getopt or 
similar. When the help text says:

    usage: mod2imp <module_name> [options]

...it really means it, the options have to go *after* the module name, 
not before:

    mod2imp -r LATEX AKJV # fails with "Unknown argument"

    mod2imp AKJV -r LATEX # succeeds

...although in this case, the IMP markup and the LaTeX markup get a bit 
mixed and it's not the easiest to work with. You may have better luck 
with the example command-line SWORD tool, diatheke:

    diatheke -b AKJV -f LATEX -k Genesis
