Chris --- this is a very basic script (it can get infinitely more
complex, but you get the idea). It's written in python3, and you use it
saying `do_album *.jpg` in the directory where all your jpegs are. It
will put three images per line, with the name below; the created file is
`album.tex` and you can compile it with `pdflatex album`.
It does not handle rotation nor fancy things --- it's just a basic one
to build upon.
Hope this helps,
Romano
