Syntax for output filenames
Hello to everybody...
I have spent very long time on this before I decided to sign up in this forum.
Maybe I've just not used the right keywords. I have to say that I'm not a programmer or something like that...
I've been playin' around a little with ImageMagick and I would like to have multiple files (in one folder) being processed and saved with their original filename to a subfolder.
In 'Terminal' I used the following command:
convert <options> *.png subfolder/???????????
I have no idea what syntax I have to use, to keep the original filenames.
I've tried *, *.*, and many more but wasn't successful.
Anyone an idea?
Thanks in advance
Ralf

NAME
pngnq - quantize png images
SYNOPSIS
pngnq [-vfhV][-s sample_factor ][-Q dither ][-g gamma ][-e extension ][-d dir ][-n colors ][ inputfiles ]
DESCRIPTION
pngnq Quantizes a 32-bit RGBA PNG image to an 8 bit RGBA palette PNG using the neuquant algorithm. The output file name is the input file
name extended with "-nq8.png" or a specified extension.
OPTIONS
-v Verbose mode. Prints status messages.
-f Force ovewriting of files.
-s sample factor
Sample factor. The neuquant algorithm samples pixels stepping by this value. The default value of 3 gives good results. Higher val-
ues sample less of the image pixels and thus are faster but less accurate. A factor of 1 samples every image pixel.
-n colors
Specifies the number of colors to quantize to. Defaults to 256 which is the maximum. The minimum here is 2.
-Q dither
Choose a dithering method: n = no dither (default), f = Floyd Steinberg dithering.
-g gamma
Set the image gamma correction. If not present, uses the png file's gamma or defaults to 1.0.
-e extension
Specifies the new filename extension. Defaults to "-nq8.png". Pngnq drops .png from the original filenames. If you set the argument
of the -e option to .png and choose the -f option the input file will be overwritten.
-d dir Tells pngnq to put output files in a directory other than the one the input files are in.
input files
The png files to be processed. Defaults to standard input if not specified. If standard input is being processed the output is sent
to standard output.
-h Print program help.
-V Print version number and library versions.
BUGS
Does not deal correctly with greyscale alpha images with low bit depths, but these wont benefit from quantizing.
