I'm pretty open minded with the name, but I definitely don't like the 
word 'tool' in it.  'tool' doesn't really add any information about what 
the program does, 'converter' might be better, or you could just drop it 
all together and get something like 'qdb'

	I'd say *.csv, *.pdb, *.ifo

	(if you make them easily definable at configure time even better)
