_IF_ Nate _were_ to be working on a standalone version of NLP, having a CLI to interact with it or even use without a GUI would probably unlock some cool possibilities for automation, linking with other tools, etc etc

Thought I’d post this just in case…

That Adobe is only available as a subscription, seems recently the minor problem !  
Is the way they deal with our photos, and their plans with AI, is that not a horror for every photographer ?  
Why support something that puts one out of business?  
More and more people turn away from Adobe . Not to mention the court cases.  
Nate is it really impossible to make a standalone NLP version ???  
I would be more than willing to pay again for a standalone version !
