v2.1.2 Small Fix to Help Message

• Paper type 'source' only relevant to Auto-Rotation (Flip-Detection removed from info)

v2.1.1 Small Fix to Help Message

• Change auto-rotate to --auto-rotate in help print

v2.1.0 LongOpts Additions:

• Now accepts Long Options (case-insensitive)
• File names/folders don't need to be at the end no more
• Detecting permission errors
• Better options and argument validation
• New Option -n, --no-overwrite - aborts if output target exists.
• Rebuilt Flip-Detection
• New Paper Type 'source' wildcard, to run resizing without resizing paper: -r source
• Auto-modes do not fallback to defaults on error anymore, error printed, execution aborted
• Rebuilt help info
• Many new auxiliary functions
• Few new execution flags
• More error detection
• Able to read files with stupid pdf extensions like .Pdf
• Removes stupid pDf extensions on automatic naming
• Better Verbosing messages
• And many other minor changes

v2.0.5 Additions:
