The menu entry will appear under Actions. Ah. That may be why it's not working. I'm using Nautilus, not Dolphin. http://i60.tinypic.com/a2rz2f.jpg I forget exactly why Dolphin drove me crazy such that I switched to Nautilus and was happier ever since, but, I think it was that Dolphin I did something similar to this with Nautilus (or rather the MATE fork of it). I just created a shell script and did the "open with" thing once and that added my little shell script to the list of things I can run against a JPEG. Pretty easy...

Kubuntu filemanager is Dolphin, not Nautilus so would not nautilus-actions only work on Nautilus, or at lease requires some tweaking to install for Dolphin? Higher up in the thread Mr. Beck indicated that he didn't like Dolphin and was using Nautilus. Personally I would choose Nautilus over Dolphin too. That hasn't really been a problem since I rarely use KDE. Right now I am using Thunar, the default with Xfce. It has a 'Custom Actions' editor built-in to easily do the type of things Mr. Beck is wanting. -- Wildman GNU/Linux user #557453 The cow died so I don't need your bull! |

That gives you the gui for creating the custom actions. BTW I have never used it so I can't offer any guidance. -- Wildman GNU/Linux user #557453 The cow died so I don't need your bull! |

And even ran the config tool. $ gksu nautilus-actions-config-tool Still nothing ... but will work on it. I think I have come up with an easy solution. Create the custom action and point it the script that is pasted below. For the command use this: /path/to/strip_exif.sh $F Paste the script into a text editor and save it as strip_exif.sh and set the exec bit. Right-click it in Nautilus and select Properties--Permissions. The script can actually be placed anywhere but on my system I have a hidden folder in HOME called ..scripts that I use for such things. Also, it occurred to me that you might not want the pictures to be over written so I would suggest to create a folder like ~/Converted to receive the stripped images. The script is written with that in mind. If you don't care if the pictures are overwritten then use the second script. Of Course change the path to the 'Converted' directory as needed. BTW this script has been tested. And "theoretically" there is no limit on the number of images that can be pasted to the script. ----begin strip_exif.sh---- #!/bin/bash while [ "$1" != "" ]; do convert -strip $1 /home/user/Converted/`basename $1` shift done ----end strip_exif.sh---- This version will overwrite the original files. ----begin strip_exif.sh (overwrite version)---- #!/bin/bash while [ "$1" != "" ]; do convert -strip $1 $1 shift done ----end strip_exif.sh---- -- Wildman GNU/Linux user #557453 The cow died so I don't need your bull! |
