Dear Tutors, Here is a query from a student from a corporate class I'm teaching. Do you know of any such modules of the top of your head? Thanks!
=== Quick question since the next class isn't until Monday. Do you know of any modules in Python that can convert a bitmap from one format to another, specifically .BMPs to .JPGs? We have a need to do this conversion. Our developers have grown fond of screen shots as they give much information that may not be written up in a bug. However, our most common tool for getting a screen shot is a screen capture in VMWare which only does .BMP format files. They are about 2.3 Mb apiece. Where as a .JPG of the same thing is only about 34 - 175 Kb. The space savings is significant. So, we need a way of efficiently convert these screenshots. This class presents me an opportunity to create a utility to do this for us. Hence, the question. === -- Chuck Allison _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
