Batch convert
improve output readability

Suggestion A - plain text
  • use symbols
    - mainly to display status (there are few different tick marks and crosses available)
    - maybe replace some other symbols (eg arrow)
  • align text to grid with spaces/tabs
    - mainly text in summary. Aligning Image details and Comment do not worth the hassle.

Code: Select all

*** not sure if 'loading' is still in use as I only saw it on some screenshots


Suggestion B - table
  • rework into table structure add html support
    (can be a checkbox in settings [plain/html output])
    to expand formatting capabilities to:
    - table structure
    - text weight (eg highlight changes in bold)

  • Summary can be grouped
