How to modify multiple images in terminal?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
I need to invert multiple .png images from black to white using command line.
I have found that I might use gimp plugin "plug-in-vinvert" but I can not figure out how to use it. I have tried something like
gimp -b '(plug-in-vinvert "INT32" "filename.png" "/resultsFolder/")'
and many other combinations but with no success.
command-line gimp convert png

Why gimp? Try imagemagick package. It's a great command line image processor.
In your case you can use it like:
convert -negate src.png dst.png

Are you sure you have copied the whole string? Fromfortodone? BTW, there is a mistake in the string: not*.jpg, but*.png. So the right one:for i in `ls *.png`; do convert ${i%.*}.png ${i%.*}-inverted.png; done

I was not working because I have copied it without the "done". You have there one small error, but the working code isfor i in `ls *.png`; do convert -negate ${i%.*}.png results/${i%.*}.png; doneI have just added-negateand changed the code to place the inverted images into "results" folder.

mogrify -negate *.jpg

Try this GIMP plugin for performing a routine on multiple images simultaneously: "Batch Image Manipulation Plugin" http://registry.gimp.org/node/26259
Download and extract the package, open a terminal inside the resulting folder, and run:
make && make install
Then start Gimp, go to File - Batch Image Manipulation, in order to start the plugin. There you can add the multiple images.
As the question asks for inverting colors, add the corresponding manipulation set: Add - Other GIMP procedure, search for 'invert' and you will find 'gimp-invert'
OK, and before 'Apply' you can set the output folder which by default is ~/.
Hope that helps. Have fun GIMPing!
