Option 'workshopid' is defined multiple times. #3

I realise this may be out of scope, but would it be possible to add support for specifying workshopid multiple times to enable downloading an entire modlist at once? Rather than logging into steam for every single mod.

This would better mimic steamcmd and allow for easier drop-in replacement

Hey,

I was planning on rewriting this entire tool soonish because of some internal changes.

This would certainly be one thing I could add to the new version.

Out of curiosity, do you use this tool to automatically download things as part of a script? Or do you manually run it whenever you want to download something?

I was thinking of providing an alternative mode which is interactive, so that it's easier to use for people that are not familiar with command line tools that use arguments.

I currently manage my modded arma servers with a powershell script I wrote that reads exported modlist html files, then compiles a single steam command to download them all. Steamcmd's workshop_download_item command is somewhat unreliable and can fail, causing issues trying to set up fully automated servers.
