Description

Hey I am trying to use your software and it works out of the box, I wonder if you could help me with this little issue though.
I am very new to this and scripting in general, so please bear with me if I seem slow.

.\2bbcode.bat example.md
The above works fine and prints out a bbcode file in the same directory as the 2bbcode.bat file. I am trying to get the output file saved to another directory, I have tried
.\2bbcode.bat .\example.md -o .\test\test.bbcode
It just saves it to the same location as the 2bbcode.bat file.

Can you please show me how to save it to another location? Am on windows. Thank you.
