Add mass convert

[MephistoPheles666]

I'd be extremely handy if you could add an option to convert all .nbt files in the folder where the exe is situated to .json with their respective names.

Hi, it's possible, but it would make more sense to use the shell to do it. If you're on Windows, you can open cmd and use something like the following (assuming your current directory is where the nbt files are and nbt2json is in the path):

for /f "delims=" %i in ('dir /b *.nbt') do @echo nbt2json --in %i --out %~ni.json

That will just print out the commands to run; make sure it looks right and then run it again minus the @echo. To mass convert back to nbt:

for /f "delims=" %i in ('dir /b *.json') do @echo nbt2json -r --in %i --out %~ni.nbt

If you're using Linux or Mac, or PowerShell, let me know. Those are probably easier.
