DESCRIPTION
  Converts a BotW saves

  This program converts a BotW save directory to from one console format to another.

  This works with Wii U and Switch saves up to version 1.6 of the game.

  Version 1.5 and 1.6 are compatible and should work interchangeably on both platforms.

Example

The following example will convert the save files in the directory ./original/save/backup and write them to the ./converted direcetory. If the directory already exists and is not empty, the command will fail (use -f to enable prompting for deleting files).

botwc ./original/save/backup/ ./converted
