Support for multiple tape files?

[ghost]

Hey Charm!

First off, I'm a big fan.

I'm integrating VHS into a new open source CLI here at SailPoint: https://github.com/sailpoint-oss/sailpoint-cli/pull/23

I was looking at utilizing this Action in the pipeline for that project, but I am creating tape files for most all of the independent CLI commands, and I can't tell if this action supports inputing multiple tape files?

If not I suppose I can just emulate the action in a more standard GH Workflow

To make a suggestion, I think this would be good usage, and I've seen many other actions do the same:

- uses: charmbracelet/vhs-action@<commit-ish>
  with:
    path: |
      path.tape
      path/with/glob/*.tape

In other words, path could be a newline-separated list of glob patterns.

I'd absolutely love this feature. I'm currently using a workaround solution of basically installing VHS and its dependencies manually and then using a small bash script to iterate over images/*.tape files. For reference, if anybody else is looking at this thread, that GitHub workflow is public here: https://github.com/mfigurski80/NTPeek/blob/master/.github/workflows/vhs.yml

Also, if https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs-action/issues/56 and https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs/issues/211 then the usage could also potentially just be

- uses: charmbracelet/setup-vhs@main
- run: vhs **.tape
