I had something come up today : I have a directory of images, mostly
375x375 pixels. I wanted to make a set of icons 15x15 to represent
them.
Looked at gimp manpage, see it has a 'batch' option but would have to
go to the gimp.org website to get further information.
Try 'apropos image', 'apropos resize', mostly get pointed to X
functions or disk-related utilities.
Thinks ..oO(I am sure I have seen this come up in the HantsLug)Oo..
Google (in my case, Gmail search0 -> thread on [hants] Batch resizing, May 2006

qg@dev:~$ which convert
/usr/bin/convert
