[Request/Question] Convert Document Set

[TheNameKevinWasTaken]

Sorry, not an issue but was unsure where else to put this.

Request: Export entire documents sets as folders, with files in folder as selected file type.

Context:
I am trying to setup a digital typewriter for a friend and am running this on a raspberry pi w 2, I am using rclone to backup files from the pi to their google drive. The only issue is they backup as the WorgGrinder dump file which is doesn't work well for their use case.

I know I can wordgrinder --convert filename.wg filename.md to get the file as md, and i can wordgrinder --convert filename.wg:"Chapter 1" chapter1.md to select a specific document within a set, but I would like to export an entire document set with something such as wordgrinder --convertall filename.wg ./filename md

This would result in a new folder named filename with each document saved as a .md within it.

Is this something that could already be done with the current setup, something that would be net new, or something I could accomplish with a script on my own end?
