If you are calling a Script-fu defined function from the command line,  
it is not required that the function be registered with the PDB. The  
definition will be loaded when Script-fu is initialized and the  
function made available within Script-fu. PDB registration is only  
necessary if you wish the defined function to be made available to  
plug-ins or scripts in other languages.

Thanks guys, I've figured out what to do from your pointers! Didn't
realize there's a difference between _ and -.

 From a quick look at the above, the zac-autocrop function appears to be ok 
with one minor exception. You don't use _ in the names of functions in 
Script-Fu. 'plug_in_autocrop' should be 'plug-in-autocrop'.

If you wrote zac-autocrop to load, crop, and re-save your files, why does your 
GIMP command line shown above call plug-in-autocrop instead of zac-autocrop?

script-fu is something I do not use, so I will give my example
implementation in a form that you could call from the PyGimp console.

def autocrop_many (pattern):
  import glob
  filenames = glob.glob (pattern)
  for filename in filenames:
#the following is a direct translation of your script-fu.
image = pdb.gimp_file_load (filename, filename)
drawable = image.active_layer
pdb.plug_in_autocrop (image, drawable)
pdb.gimp_file_save (image, drawable, filename, filename)
pdb.gimp_image_delete (image) # this line may not be needed

If you paste the above into a PyGimp console, then call it like
autocrop_many ('/path/to/files/movie*')
it should do what you want.

If you don't have python support installed, I can only help by
pointing out basic errors in your code; I know little of script-fu

* plug_in_autocrop accepts an image as it's first parameter, but you
provided a filename.
(you also are trying to call 'plug_in_autocrop', whereas the function
is named 'plug-in-autocrop'. -/_ substitution is only used if you're
coding your plugin in Python.)
 I think you meant to call zac-autocrop here, anyway.

^^
the above line has the _ / - mistake I pointed out earlier in this email.

You defined zac-autocrop correctly, but you haven't registered it with GIMP.
See this link for an example.

Hi David,

Thanks for answering my question so quickly.

I realized that I should have phrased my question more carefully. What
I want is to be able to autocrop all the images matching a pattern,
say "movie*.jpg". How do I do that?

I tried something below, but that didn't work. =(

Thanks!

Zac

gimp -i -b '(plug_in_autocrop "movie0.jpg")'

(define (zac-autocrop filename)
  (let* ((image (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE filename filename)))
 (drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image
(plug_in_autocrop RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable)
(gimp-file-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable filename filename)
(gimp-image-delete image)))

Autocrop (Image->Autocrop) does this.

[Gimp-user] Exact crop question

2008-04-21 Thread Zachary Leung
Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if there's an automated way to crop my images of all the white
areas on the outside.

Basically I've produced quite a few MATLAB plots exported as JPEGs. There's
a lot of white around the sides, and the figure is in the center. Is there
an automated way to crop exactly the white parts around the figure away?
That would save me time from having to zoom in to each picture and do the
cropping manually.

Thanks!

Zac
