2.2 List Files
The list file consists of the following commands, one per line. If a ! is placed at the beginning of a line, the -A option is overridden and the file will be parsed. A @ at the beginning of the line will cause any path information in the output file to be kept (normally this will be stripped allowing you to place input files in directories without complicating things).

# ...
Any line starting with a pound sign is considered a comment and will be ignored. When the -d flag is used these will be dumped to the console.
DIRNAME/
This changes to output directory to DIRNAME, all files parsed after this command will be outputted there (directories set in the output filename when @ is used, or those set by the <~PATH> tag will be added after this)
INPUTFILE>OUTPUTFILE
This reads in INPUTFILE, parsing the commands inside and writing to OUTPUTFILE in the output directory.
WILDCARD<
This will parse every file that matches the wildcard in the current directory (for example, *.html parses all files ending in .html). The output files will have the exact same name, but will be placed in the output directory. This can also be used as a shortcut for FILE1>FILE1.
