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.
