Hi, I don't know zipfile by heart, but python official documentation is always good ( docs.python.org ). You need a loop in the file list like this:
for file in zip: process(file) Unfortunatelly, there are too many ways to create a thumbnail from an image. I'll cite one, using the "python image" external module, that I've found to be very easy: import Image def process(file): try: image = Image.open(file) image.thumbnail ((128,128), Image.ANTIALIAS) image.save (file + '.thumb.png') except: print 'Skipping file', file Links: http://docs.python.org/lib/lib.html - Python Library Reference http://www.pythonware.com/library/pil/handbook/image.htm - The Image Module K P S wrote: > Hi. > I'm looking for a small script that will take a .zip archive and pull > the first .jpg from the archive and convert it to a .png. > > The reason for this is I want to have tuhmbnails for these archives in > nautilus under gnome.
