Hi John ..
well sort of yes what it is the structure of the gallery is the main
pictures in a dir then in a sub dir are the thumbnails which are
named such as img0005-s.jpg for the thumbnails and img0005.jpg for
the main pictures ,
it would make life a lot easier if the script was able to setup the
main and the thumbs correctly what happens right now is it sets both
to the main image name meaning i have to go in and edit up to 500
lines PITA there is enough variance to make the automatic find and
replace fail ..
Pete .

You want to be able to change "img_0004.jpg" to "img_0004_s.jpg", right?
You can use the built-in string replace functionality of bash to achieve
this (described in the first hit of that google search):
$ f=img_0004.jpg
$ echo $f
img_0004.jpg
$ echo ${f/.jpg/_s.jpg}
img_0004_s.jpg

Hi
Well sorry but that does nothing but generate a blank awardgallery.html
and a complaint of
line 2: syntax error near unexpected token `done'
so guess it's back to hacking by hand
Thanks to John K Pate but i dont at the moment have time to sit and
digest heaps of variables i just need to solve this one problem .
I can study when i have more time and found somewhere else to live
outside of bloody Sandwell ..
Thanks Pete .

Re: [arch-general] a bit more script
Oh sorry I forgot something important from the command. In for f in...
you use $f to replace the filename. In find you -exec you use {}
find . -name '*.jpg' -exec echo "" ;
done >> awardgallery.html
