Batch converter for windows using InkScape and the command line
Just download the file InkscapeBatchConvert.bat
Put it in the folder where you have files you wish to convert.
Then double click the file to start it.
Tested with Inkscape 0.9.x - 1.0.x
Check if your inkscape path is C:\Program Files\Inkscape\inkscape.exe, otherwise change the path in line 3 in the bat script
