And doesn't Cygwin provide gzip also?  Not to mention a better shell
than stock XP ;)

This is because of the depravity and poverty of Windows software culture.

Seriously,

http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gzip.htm

should be usable in a very similar way to the instructions given.

Is this possible on windows xp?  Becaues what you just said sounded like a

I forgot to mention how would you do this on Windows XP.  Completely forgot 
that gimp runs on other OS besides windows.

Ahh, good trick to know indeed, that the dot has to be explicitly
mentioned as part of the extension.

Well, using .gz (or .bz2 for bzip2 compression) still has more
adventages, not only with gzip, but Gimp in general, as you can save
.pnm.gz or many other formats that are natively uncompressed and it
will load back, but the only supported "without dot" are .xcfgz and
.xcfbz2.

The trick isn't hard once you know it

gzip -S gz *.xcf

(the default suffix is .gz, so we are just removing the .)

Just run gzip *.xcf in a shell. Or look for a compression app that can
gzip multiple files separatelly (not tar then gzip... no idea if any
app does that alone, I just go with simpler g(un)zip for this).

As advice, save and use .xcf.gz instead of .xcfgz so you need no extra
steps, gunzip *.xcf.gz will revert the compression, but with .xcfgz
you will need some tricks to handle the renaming.

[Gimp-user] batch convert

2006-04-10 Thread saulgoode
If you wish to use the GIMP to perform your task, I describe how to do it in the
following post on GIMPtalk. You will have to change the output extension from
".png" to ".jpg" though. Feel free to contact me if you experience any
difficulty.

Use ImageMagick, put all in one directory and:
  for i in *.xcf; do convert $i `basename $i jpg`; done
  those are backtics before basename and after jpg.

last i knew it could read them and convert from them but not make them.

gimp can do this.  it is somewhere on my website, i think the page is
very broken right now, but it should be somewhere in
http://carol.gimp.org/gimp/scripting/

don't let complaints from the script-fu server annoy or concern you if
you find and use that script from the commandline.
