I had posted this earlier to the gimp-users list....Someone suggested that I may find an answer on this list. I am looking for an suggestion you can provide. Matt Patterson matt@xxxxxxxxxxx -- Forwarded message from matt@xxxxxxxxxxx -- Hello, I am having an issue with a Script that I have written being called from the command line. Here is what I am trying to do. I have written a script using Scheme that runs great when I have Gimp loaded up (ie not from the command line). No problems, does everything that I want. The real point of the script is to automate some image resizing from the command line. I know that many of you out there are going to point out that ImageMagick will do what I am looking for. I have already gone down that path and the image quality of the scaled images is not up to the quality that client wants. However, I can make a better, smaller image using Gimp....now I just need to make it completely automated. here is the rub..... I have the script streamlined down and everything is set to be non-interactive. So i should just be able to pass in the variables and away we go.... My thinking is obviously flawed here as it doesn't quite work. here is how I am calling the script:.... gimp -b '(script-fu-automated-resize 1 "200" "200" "/export/home/matt/toprocess/Imagein.jpg" "/export/home/matt/toprocess/Imageout.jpg")' '(gimp-quit 0)' The script takes in a height, width, beginning image and output image. I pass it a 1 before all of that for non-interactive. The script is designed to open the beginning image, resize accordingly, and then save to the output image. I get the following response..... batch command: executed successfully. One would think that I should be able to check my system and I should see the end image....nope....nada...nothing. If I change the option of 1 to 0 to run in interactive mode...I get the prompt for the default values of the script. Height, Width, Image to process....final image. If I enter those in, click the ok button....it runs like a champ. What am I missing? I have the non-interactive bit set on the file open which I assume is what is causing this dialog to pop up. Any ideas? tips? Pointer? References? Anyone already have a thumbnail script that works in this way that can shed some light on the subject?
