Using linux terminal to convert DWG to SVG via Draftsight

Hi there

I'm successfully running draftsight on 64-bit-Ubuntu, and what I'm *really* after more than any CAD drawing/editing is file conversion. Draftsight does a wonderful job in exporting to SVG.

I'm hoping there's a way to do exports from the command line... for example, I know I can automatically load a DWG from the command line by typing:  /path/to/draftsight /path/to/myFile.dwg 

... but I'm *really* hoping I could do something along the lines of: /path/to/draftsight --EXPORTSVG /path/to/my.dwg

 

Anyone know if something like this is possible?  Thanks!
