Hi Nasser,

make4ht --shell-escape  -ulm default -a warning -e
> /mnt/g/texmf/tex/latex/MAIN.mk4  index.tex "mathjax,html"

It will find build files in ~/texmf/scripts/lua/ path. I would use
something like ~/texmf/scripts/lua/make4htbuildfiles.

kpsewhich can find any file in texmf tree, but the kpse library available
in Lua always searches for a specific type of file and it is more strict
about directories where it does the lookup.

Best regards,
Michal
