I am getting exact result for -merge_clouds and -save_clouds all_at_once command,
two adolescent clouds put together on each other.

Isn't -merge_clouds command supposed to work the way Edit > Merge button works in GUI?

The 'MERGE_CLOUDS' does work as the 'Edit > Merge' method (but it only works on clouds, not on meshes or their vertices). And looking at the code I couldn't find any issue on this side. You call this option after having loaded all clouds.

If you let the default 'auto save' behavior, you should get a single cloud (file) with '_MERGED' in the filename if it succeeds.

And to use the 'ALL_AT_ONCE' option, you must select a format that allows it (e.g. BIN). But I guess in your case this is not the main problem.
