I have a few hundred screen shots I want to put on a web page, but
they are all full-screen and I want to crop to the real contents.
This is an identical region in all cases. So I want to script it.
So, 2 questions:
A) What's the best tool for the job? Gimp, irfanview, or something else?
B) Is there a script already in existence where I can just change the
crop rectangle? I really don't want to learn a new language for a
one-time job.
If you have a powerful machine with many cores you can speedup the batch
process by using xargs or parallel with -Px argument.
The following one liner will utilize 8 cores for example:
assuming you have your files in one dir

find . -name "*.png" | parallel -P8 convert -quality 95 {} -geometry 1280
/tmp/{.}.jpg|
Adjust for the crop instead of resize ..
