--help doesn't work

If you want a GUI-only app, yes it's the norm to build it without console. It's not common for GUI windows apps to open a console, though there are some programs that do it anyway. Doesn't…

--help doesn't work

Using `--console` does not prevent the Windows application from opening GUI windows, it simply ensures there is a console open for standard output.

--help doesn't work

Two more thoughts on the default behaviour with no arguments: Printing usage would be good, since --help is very verbose with multiple pages, but I think it would be helpful if it also had a…

> But if this is true, then this means that the appveyor windows builds **never** worked. I'm really upset about the Windows situations as people keep asking for it but then do not test it:…

--help doesn't work

Yes, ```img2pdf.exe``` is still broken in the same way as before. ```img2pdf_console.exe --help``` now gives the help text to the console as expected. ```--console``` is the default and…

Past version release binaries?

The old exe file I have was from the sourceforge project I just linked (the binary matches exactly to the 0.0.0.1 download there). So, it was not the case that I got it from your appveyor.

Past version release binaries?

After some digging I discovered the EXE I had was actually version 0.0.0.1 of this project: https://sourceforge.net/projects/image2pdf/ My apologies for confusing it with yours.

Oh. I apologize then, because I have no idea where the executable I have comes from. I couldn't find any other project by the name "img2pdf", so I assumed this must have been where I originally…

--help doesn't work

So, it seems like you are using PyInstaller to make the EXE? I haven't used that before, but a quick guess would be that you [removed the console](https://gitlab.mister-muffin.de/josch/img2pdf/src/…

I see. I guess you delete old releases, along with their binary, whenever you make a new one? I think if you kept them it would be helpful. I could test them and find which version broke to…

--help doesn't work

Running from IDLE rather than using the exe binary I get this description instead for the same line: ``` AttributeError: 'StdInputFile' object has no attribute 'buffer' ``` It seems the…

--help doesn't work

0.4.4 release binary does not appear to run on windows at all. I believe the problem is not with "--help" not working, but rather it crashes with no output? Running with --help does not crash,…
