Thing is- a nemo action may be more easier to maintain. If it was to like open up a new dialog and have lots of other options it'd make sense. Otherwise this may be best to be put into nemo-image-converter? |

Oh I agree actually. But since image converter isn't mine I thought I'd just start with a pull request like this and see what came out of the discussion. If you'd like me to modify image converter to add this and resubmit I will. Sent via the Samsung Galaxy A11, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone

Well It'd probably end up being rewritten in C, using something like the ImageMagick API |

That would probably improve the performance. I may expand this to support conversion to multiple image formats and handle a few other operations as well. I just happen to be doing a project that requires dealing with a ton of images and they need to be PNGs with clean iTxt chunks, so I produced this real quick. I just thought I'd share in case it was useful to anyone else. I think something like a multi-format "swiss army knife" for basic image operations would be more justified in being it's own separate extension. If I do decide to tackle that project I will probably consider doing it in C.Sent via the Samsung Galaxy A11, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone

Hi, I'll mark this as WIP. In Cinnamon 5.2 we're planning to introduce a new spice type: nemo actions. This could be done with a single text file as a nemo action, not just easier to maintain but easier for people to install, review, etc.. |

This is an extension for Nemo that adds context menu shortcuts to bulk-convert images to PNG format, and optionally optimize them with pngcrush. Obviously, pngcrush is a dependency, but if it's not present, the image conversion pieces should still work. Depending on how many images are selected to convert/crush, the process can be lengthy, so a progress window is shown to the user. Python dependencies are pillow and PySimpleGUI, both available on PyPi.
