The motivated one can learn an inifinte amount of information about the Gimp: it's got its own list-based language, and you can definitely do a script similar to that (I remember writing on that would automatically prompt for a filename, save the current image at 640x480 and a thumbnail at 60x40 (or whatever)). Honestly, it's more effort that it's worth if all you want to do is resize. I'd suggest having a look at convert(1) from imagemagick, which does all that through a command line interface (my favourite :) ). > I don't normally like file managers, but using Endeavour2's image > browser is helpful.

All it's missing IMO is the ability to save images after rotating them (it's a browsing-only program) Y. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
