Usually, for batch processing, the advice is to use imagemagick (or
garphicsmagick), which should be already present on your system.

Imagemagick is a collection of small utilities (display, mogrify,
convert, etc.). Since you probably do not want to overwrite the original
file, what you want is "convert". See the man page here
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php
The gimp solution to batch processing is David's Batch Processor:

It should work also fine for you.
Thanks. I'm an avid user of imagmagick. There is no "autorotate"
feature, nor does David's.
Best,
Mike
