Batch Conversion

[ctt]

I am sure I am missing it but, is there a way to use a file with a list of files for the input for conversion - the equivalent of
I_view32.exe /slideshow=c:\mypics.txt

something like i_view32.exe c:\file_list.txt /convert=c:\*.tif

Thanks

I'm not that familiar with command-lines, so you'll have to check the options in this thread :

But I know that you can use the Slideshow dialog (W) to select some files to add, and then save that list as a txt-file,
without further use of the slideshow.
Then you can open the same txt-file in the Batch dialog (B) and execute some conversion.

If you don't have to make a selection of related files in that directory, but just need to select all,
then you can skip the Slideshow dialog, because it's enough to execute the system command (in that directory!):

dir *.* /b > mypics.txt

and then open mypics.txt in the Batch dialog.

In the GUI it seems the file gets imported as individual images. How to I make use of this with the command line?
