I first cp dpx%6d.dpx dpx.dpxs (copied cingg's header/toc into new file) then ls *.dpx > dpx.list (will list all dpx files in current dir including cingg's header/toc one) then cat dpx.list >> dpx.dpxs (glue two files together) then sed '/%d*/d' -i dpx.dpxs (remove cin-gg's header/toc file from resulting file in-place) but because dpx really bmp in my case it failed to work... > > > > > > Also, yesterday, I tried it on Arch dated 10/30/2020 and DPX did not > work (have to check to see if TIFF does).
