### What is it?

Demboyz is a command line tool to convert TF2 STV demos into a human readable json format. Demboyz runs on Linux, Windows, and OSX.
It supports the following conversions:

    .dem/.json <-> .dem/.json
    .dem/.json -> .con

    The .dem format is the TF2 STV demo format.
    The .json format is the demboyz streaming json demo format.
    The .con format is a log equal to what would be produced by TF2
    with netmessage/demmessage logs enabled.

### Potential Uses
