You can find names of methods that correspond to various Gimp operations via Gimp's PDB Explorer (menu Xtns/PDB Explorer). In this case it is gimp_image_scale. According docs avialable via PDB Explorer this function expects following parameters:

   In:
       IMAGE image
       INT32 new_width 
       INT32 new_height
[download]

Perl module Gimp that provides bindings allows you to call this function as

    Gimp->gimp_image_scale($img, $new_width, $new_height);
[download]

It also does some magick so you can call same operation under different names. All following calls do the same thing:

    Gimp->gimp_image_scale($img, $new_width, $new_height);
    Gimp->image_scale($img, $new_width, $new_height);
    $img->scale($new_width, $new_height);
[download]

All you have to do is adding such call before saving jpeg file.

You can learn more from documenation in Gimp module and from Gimp-Perl web site.

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
