nwc-conv: version 2.1
This program is a front end command to the file convert options
available in the main NoteWorthy Composer program. It must be
located in the same folder as the main NWC program.

Usage: nwc-conv IN_FMT OUT_FMT [-h|-v|-0|-1]

IN_FMT
    This specifies the input file or format that will be used.
    This can be the name of a *.nwc or *.nwctxt file, or if
    STDIN is used, it should indicate "NWC" or "NWCTXT".

OUT_FMT
    This specifies the output file or format that will be used.
    The format can be one of NWC, NWCTXT, MID, or INFO, but may
    not be the same as the IN_FMT. This can be the name of the
    intended output file, or just the the format name if STDOUT
    is used.

-h  Shows this help message
-v  Shows the program name and version
-0  Use type 0 when converting to MIDI
-1  Use type 1 when converting to MIDI

Example: nwc-conv NWCTXT "out\test.mid" -1
    This creates a Type 1 MIDI file using the NWCTXT text
    provided on standard input (STDIN)

Example: nwc-conv "in\test.nwc" NWCTXT > "out\test.nwctxt"
    This converts the test.nwc file into NWCTXT which is sent
    via standard output (STDOUT) to a test.nwctxt file

When I try the command line tool "nwc-conv.exe", it seems that it must be executed from the same directory as the exe-file.

C:\Program Files\Noteworthy Software\NoteWorthy Composer 2\SAMPLES>..\nwc-conv mozart.nwc NWCTXT

C:\Program Files\Noteworthy Software\NoteWorthy Composer 2\SAMPLES>g:nwc-conv mozart.nwc nwctxt

Seems to work, but an extra 104k of code just to find nwc2.exe?
