thumbnail_index(1)

NAME
thumbnail_index - make an HTML index file for a bunch of images

SYNOPSIS
thumbnail_index [-r] [-s size] [-c cols] [-i indexname]

DESCRIPTION

Run this script in a web directory consisting of all or mostly image files. It'll create an index.html of thumbnail images, putting the thumbnail files in a hidden subdirectory.

It avoids unnecessary work by comparing the dates on already existing thumbnail files and not re-creating them if the corresponding original has not changed.

It also refuses to overwrite an index.html file not created by this script.

OPTIONS

-r  Recursively makes index files for all subdirectories.

Specifies the size of the thumbnail image.
    Default is 70 pixels. If you want to re-do an already indexed directory but use different size thumbnails, you have to remove the old thumbnails. An "rm -rf .thumbnails" should suffice.

-c  Specifies how many columns of images. Default is 5.

-i  Specifies the filename of the index file. Default is index.html (some sites use .index.html instead).
