[Wishlist] Command line tools

[Roanoke]

I wish that this, like soundconvertor, had some command line tools. For starters, let me specify files to convert from the CLI. But the best case scenario is that I can have a non-interactive mode for use in shell scripts.

This would be good indeed.

I would like to associate my video files to oggconvert in nautilus, so that I can do a "open with..." and open it in oggconvert without needing to search for the file every time in the gtk select file menu.

For me, it doesn't need a CLI output interface, but at the very least the program should be able to receive a filename from command line and open the GUI with this filename selected, because currently it's not very comfortable to use from filebrowsers.

Marking as wishlist for future reference

lp:~kerry.hatcher/oggconvert/CLI

Has the ability to take command line args and use no GUI.

Use it like this:

$ ./oggconvert /home/user/inputfile /home/user/outputfile.ogv

Go ahead and give a try and let me know how it works!
Thanks,
-Kerry
