It's been a bit since I scripted anything in bash and I don't have anything fired up at the moment. You'll have to fill in the details on the scripting but something like this should be close to working # FILES = /path/to/files/*.tif For f in $FILES Do Echo "Processing $f..." Geotifcp -g a.tif ${f%.*} ${f%.*}.newtif Done
Once the processing is done delete the *.tif and then mv the *.newtif to *.tif. These steps could be handled inside the do but for a one-off process a little manual review of results before a delete works well for me.

It doesn't really have an explicit usage/help switch, but if I type just the command, I get the usage description. There is a typo in it, however $geotifcp usage: gtiffcp [options] input... output huh! What the heck is `gtiffcp` ? $gtiffcp -bash: gtiffcp: command not found -- Puneet Kishor _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
