This is a collection of simple scripts (all Perl right now) that I have developed over the years to make my life easier. I have decided to share them. They are all licensed under LGPL. They come with no warranty, but I can offer email support. Most of the these scripts are still under active development. All scripts have been tested under MacOSX but they should run under any *nix.
There is a little documentation (via --help command line parameter) but most of the scripts are self-explanatory. Some require other Perl modules that can be installed via CPAN, and one uses an external Unix tool, those are noted.
- album
-
Creates a simple online Image gallery from a set of JPEGs, e.g.
my Italy pictures. It relies on
ImageMagick to process the files; it uses
the
convertcommand line utility. - checklinks
- Checks links in a local HTML file.
- dateTree
- Creates a tree of pictures separated into date directories. The JPEG's creation date is used, which is stored in the JPEG by the digital camera. All duplicates will be removed. Uses ExifTool module to read the creation date.

--helpfor syntax. - space
