I got bored with the lack of good tools to rename my digital photos with, so I wrote a bash script to do the job.
It uses ImageMagik to convert the image (taken from the list on the command line) to full screen height and display it. The next image is loaded in the background to avoid flicker. xmessage is used to pop up a menu allowing you to move to the next screen, quit, rename the image, or add its name to /tmp/select.lst - I used gdialog to get the new image name. There's a default timeout of 15s for the next image. I've put it up in http://olliver.family.gen.nz/software if anyone wants to play/criticise/improve it. I download a load of images from my digital camera, go to the directory with the download in it, and type "slideshow *.jpg" Then I can rename all the images as I browse them full-screen. It's actually faster than using konqueror with thumbnails, and way, way faster than nautilus. Vik :v)
