NAME
       svg_validate - This script scans a directory full of *.svg files and
       checks them to see if they have proper metadata.  If so, it copies them
       into a target directory and creates a png of it.  It also creates a
       list of PASS and FAIL for the different criteria.

SYNOPSIS
       svg_validate [OPTIONS] subdir1[, subdir2...]

        -V, --version     Displays version info for the script
        -h, --help        This help screen
        -D, --debug=N     Reports debugging info (1=sparse, 3=tons)
        -n, --noclobber   Don't overwrite existing files
        -t, --target_dir  Specifies where files should be placed
            --passfail    Just generate the passfail file (still buggy)

DESCRIPTION
       This script is an example of use of SVG::Metadata for processing sets
       of SVG files, selecting the ones that have proper metadata, and placing
       them into a separate directory tree.  It generates and places PNG's of
       each image as well as a text summary file with the metadata info.

       The purpose of this script is to assist in building the release
       packages for the Open Clip Art Library (http://www.openclipart.org/).

OPTIONS
       -V, --version
               Displays the version information about the script.

       -h, --help
               Prints a brief help message with option summary.

       -D N, --debug=N
               Prints debug messages.  This expects a numerical argument
               corresponding to the debug message verbosity.

       -n, --noclobber
               Permits preventing any files to be overwritten during the
               processing.  Normally, if there are existing files in the
               target directory, they'll be deleted (unlinked) and new ones
               written.  With this option, the originals will be preserved and
               new ones will not be generated.

       -t DIRECTORY, --target_dir DIRECTORY
               This option allows control over where the output files will be
               written to.  These files will include a copy of the SVG file, a
               PNG image rendered using inkscape, and a text file with a
               summary of the file's metadata.  The files will be grouped into
               a subdirectory tree based on keywords.

               The default target directory is 'default-0.00'.

       --passfail
               This option allows you to skip generating the thumbnails and
               only produce the passfail report.
