Update No-Intro DAT files
This script updates your current No-Intro dat files with new versions that you download. The benefit over doing this manually is that this program automatically finds which dat files you have in your existing folder, and only updates those dat files. This is helpful if you download the Daily datfile pack from DAT-o-MATIC.
Your dat files must be named exactly as DAT-o-MATIC names them. This program relies on the specific timestamp format being used. Some examples names are:
Atari - 2600 (20200514-091155).dat
Bandai - WonderSwan (20210609-224257).dat
Sega - Master System - Mark III (20210527-151920).dat
usage: datpack-update [-h] src dest

positional arguments:
src Source directory of new DAT files
dest Destination directory of updated DAT files
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
