Interesting. Would you know if this tool works in a batch mode in
Windows? In Linux, I can type up bash commands in a few minutes to do
this job automatically for any number of files. But if the tool doesn't
work in batch mode in Windows, the user is going to take ages to do this
one by one for his thousands of pictures!

Wrong. Windows' DOS has the same ability using it's "for" command.

for /R %F in (*.jpg) do <some_command> "%F"
