Hello All, I spent a bunch of time trying to figure out the correct syntax for running a scm that converted a file to .jpg. The GIMP help was fine for the scm code, but not so good for the command prompt of windows.
Here is what I found to work for a script named save-as-jpg.scm: (i am on win 7 64 bit, hence the (x86) in the path... "C:\Program Files (x86)\GIMP-2.0\bin\gimp-2.6.exe" -i -b "(save-as-jpg "\"DSC_2636-Color24Bit.png\"" 0.7 "\"DSC_2636-Color24Bit.jpg\"")" -b "(gimp-quit 0)" that worked. The changes from what the help file says to use are: 1) use full path of exe, in quotes. 2) use double quotes around GIMP functions, not single quotes 3) add double quote escape sequences around parameters that are strings I looked far and wide to figure this out, so would guess others would be interested in the summary of what i found. Only remaining issue so far is how to get the secondary dos window that pops up, to close when its done. I thought the "(gimp-quit 0)" did that, but guess not. -- JamesMaeding (via gimpusers.com) _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
