Batch convert? #30

Hey, thank you for amazing library.

Is there a way to batch convert files from a folder or a txt with paths?

One can of course write a bash script to do that but it'd not be very efficient as program would launch for each conversion.

Thanks!

There is no batch convert. I am pretty sure the startup time of the process is negligible compared to the time it takes to process your average guitar pro file. How many songs do you need to convert that you're worrying about process startup times? ;) I would simply go with a script if I were you.

thanks for your reply. I wanted to convert 180.000 files, I tried with GuitarPro-to-midi; startup time is, although not fast, negligible. but the errors from this issue was around 20% so I went with Musescore 4.

i actually really liked how you handled bending so initially wanted to use it.

Thank you for the tool anyways!
