This is a Python 3 script, installed from PyPI using pip.

pip3 install base-convert-cli

Hasn't been tested on Windows.

If you don't specify a base, it does all common conversions.

$ bs 0
[from decimal]
  binary      0
  hexadecimal 0
  octal       0

[from binary]
<clipped output here>

Specifying base through a flag.

$ bs --from hex F
[from hexadecimal]

  decimal     34
  binary      100010
  hexadecimal 22
  octal       42

To base-7.

$ bs --to 7 54
[from decimal]
  base-7 105

[from hexadecimal]
  base-7 150

[from octal]
  base-7 62

Specifying both input and output bases.

$ bs --from hex --to dec F
15

Shorthand for lazy people.

$ bs -f h -t d F
15

Aaaaand input through a pipe.

$ echo '5+10' | bc | bs -t h
