Is there an easy way to do exports from the xcf format to yield jpgs?
I'm currently using "File -> Save a Copy", but labor intensive for every
change. (Command line is fine, so I can script it.)
i have some python scripts and pieces of python scripts that do this.
http://carol.gimp.org/gimp2/resources/python/comment.html is a script
piece that saves jpegs. if you use this, i would (in addition) flatten
the image (gimp_image_flatten or pdb.gimp_image_flatten(image) for a
python script).
the script portion is actually used in these two gallery scripts:
http://carol.gimp.org/gimp2/web/python/gallery-simple.py
http://carol.gimp.org/gimp2/web/python/gallery-blurbed.py
i dont know how to do this from the command line. it should be similar
though.
you can find what the gimp can do in a script from Xtns -->Procedure
Browser. or if you are using script-fu or python, there are script
consoles.
have fun with TheGIMP, it is cool.
