When using the
-xall option, NConvert outputs to an empty filename. To test, simply run:
on any test image.
The output is simply named:
I don’t know how difficult it would be to have NConvert use the input filename as the output for single-image inputs, without needing to specify
-o %. For multi-image inputs, it could append 1, 2, etc. automatically, without having to specify
-o % #
Furthermore, if you run the above command a second time, the existing file is overwritten, despite not specifying
-overwrite.
I tested this under macOS v7.232.
