Improvements to the command line interface (CLI)

Hello, sadly the CLI is not actually usable at the moment.
Lets say you have a bunch of pictures that are cgi and a bit blurry and you want to process all of them with the same settings (enhance:cgi, sharpen:normal) you have no way of telling the CLI that. It will just auto-pilot through the given image or the given folder. You will get the same output as if you had been using the UI.

CLI was the main reason I originally bought Photo AI. I even programmed a Windows Service that would act as file watcher for specific inbox directories on a network share and trigger the Photo AI CLI. But sadly I soon found out that almost nothing can be specified. Not even models can be deactivated right now (so it’s like rolling the dice, as autopilot chooses different models for each image - even if it’s the same series of pictures I am processing).

I’ve written a summary here on the general batch issues.
And also one suggestion on the CLI here (Feel free to vote for it if it’s something you would also like).

Sadly CLI doesn’t seem to be a priority.
