OK. Status update:
Things work, but not due to me. Basically I kept on searching and found
scripts from others. I am able to read them and sometimes even edit them.
I am still unable to make my own.
Here my thoughts on how I think the process is going:
>From the command line:
gimp -i -c -d -b '(batch_fuzzy_border "./alyssa01.jpg" "pink" 40 TRUE 10 TRUE
50) ' -b '(gimp-quit 0)'
This is read by the script with
(define (batch_fuzzy_border pattern color size blurt gran shadowt shadowp)
This then is passed on to the "real" script with
script-fu-fuzzy-border image drawable color size blurt gran shadowt shadowp
FALSE TRUE)
All the rest is to open andf close the file(s).
This all works, so I try to implement this for script-fu-drop-shadow where
I want to use the standard settings for all.
In scrpt-fu console I get the following:
(script-fu-drop-shadow run-mode image drawable value value value color value
toggle)
As I only want to change the name, I get the following:
(define (batch_drop_shadow pattern)
(let* ((filelist (cadr (file-glob pattern 1))))
(while (not (null? filelist))
(let* ((filename (car filelist))
(image (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE filename filename)))
(drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image)))
)
(script-fu-drop-shadow image drawable 8 8 15 "black" 80.0 TRUE)
(set! drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image)))
(gimp-file-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable filename filename)
(gimp-image-delete image)
)
(set! filelist (cdr filelist))
)
)
)
The command I use is:
gimp --verbose -i -c -d -b '(batch_drop_shadow "file.png" )' -b '(gimp-quit 0)'
This results in:
Starting extension: 'extension-script-fu'
No batch interpreter specified, using the default 'plug-in-script-fu-eval'.
batch command executed successfully.
The result is however not a dropshadow, although something is done, as
the size is different before and after. With all the time I spend on this,
it must be me that is unable to grasp how things are done and perhaps
better just ask when O need a script.
The end goal is to be able to do this for all of the scripts that are either
included or downloaded at a later time. I am afraid this will be not for
me. :-/
