Bug Description

I have ~120,000 files converted from wmf where the canvas doesn't fit the drawing. I would like to be able to write a script that opens each file, fits the canvas to drawing, saves and closes the file and opens the next and so on. I seem to not be able to do it without the gui, which slows down the process immensely.

I'd propose extended support for --verb commands with -z option, and/or better --shell mode support, together with better documentation on how to use these.
