Visual Engineering - Batch process v1.01
SHORT DESCRIPTION
This script calls selected Image Engineer -script for all
selected files in Magellan -dirlist, applies an effect to file
and saves it.
REQUIREMENTS
Image Engineer v3.41 (Wision release 2)
Directory Opus Magellan
INSTALLATION
You may copy this script anywhere you want to.
USAGE
Script was originally made for Directory Opus, Magellan. You can
still with little effort, make it work with any other filemanager.
With Magellan, create yourself a new button-bank and add a
function like this to one of buttons:
DOpus5:ARexx/VisualBatchProcess.rexx {s} {o}
Enable these: Do all files, No file quote, Rescan source
So, line after comment line, "/* DO SOMETHING */" is the effective
one. By default it calls VisualBorderDemo-script. Arguments for it
are in it's .notes-file.
(address command "Sys:Rexxc/rx ie:arexx/VisualBorderDemo.rexx" newfile ROUNDCORNER 90 13)
After VisualBordering, script continues and checking is made, if
original filename had a suffix.
.JPEG, .JPG, .JFIF are translated to ".jpg"
.PNG, .PING are translated to ".png"
.TGA, .TARGA are translated to ".tga"
.TIF, .TIFF are translated to ".tif"
others are translated to ".jpg"
Ofcourse save-fileformat will be same than it's suffix.
File is saved to "processed"-directory of sourcedir.
If you are going to use this script from shell or from other
filemanager, tell it 2 arguments; first is sourcedir and second is
filename.
Future will bring more helping scripts for Magellan, depending on
feedback and suggestions I receive. Maybe I then bother fixing
the problem on names with spaces.
HISTORY
1.01
There was a typo in (default) call to VisualBorderDemo-script.
Added also a checking, if the script actually exists.
Still Magellan will process all the files, even if error occurs.
Added more detailed info about setting function for Magellan.
