• So for example to do the same thing as mass_convert we execute: pyemb.py -i convert\* -o results\*

• To do the same as pyembroidery-convert pyemb.py -i <source-file> -o <destination-file>

• To do the same as pyembroidery-exporter pyemb.py -i <source-file> -o %f.u01 %f.exp %f.dst %f.jef %f.pes %f.vp3 or pyemb.py -i <source-file> -o %f.*

• To create an image for every readable embroidery in a directory: pyemb.py -i * -o %f.png

• To create an image for only the ones with fewer than 15000 stitches. pyemb.py -i * -c "%S < 15000" -o %f.png

• To flip my_embroidery.exp horizontally pyemb.py -i my_embroidery.exp -s -1 1 -o flipped.exp

• mass_convert.py CLI - Converts every file in directory ./convert to ./results for every acceptable filetype and into every acceptable result.
• pyembroidery-convert.py CLI - (Source File) (Destination File) convert an embroidery file from one type to another. By default makes .csv files.
• pyembroidery-exporter.py CLI - (Source File) - Converts an embroidery file from some type to .u01, .exp, .dst, .jef, .pes, .vp3
• stitch_entry_pmv.py CLI - Text interface - Allows creating stitch files from a purely text base interface expecting values between [0,14] and [-30,30]

The stitch_entry_pmv script works but the MaKe-stitch program is a fully realized GUI.
