I checked it and it works really well --- so much that I suggest to add it to the xournal sources.
I just used the default parameter (minus the x and y one, given that my notes were in landscape format) and had a really nice editable xournal file, handy to cut-and-paste on my own documents. The included utilities are also quite useful (concatenate .xoj, for example) but I understand that they work just for this case. Now I just miss a way to "export to PDF" from command line... Thanks a lot!
