Re: Generate thumbnail and small overstruck images for web publication

I gave just a quick look at your program. I have just a {question,suggestion}: why print and exit instead of die? Well, maybe you don't want it to fail... also I would use an HERE doc in this case:

die <<"EOMESSAGE" unless @ARGV;
Begin long message...
...
End long message
EOMESSAAGE

Fair comment. It's the C/C++ shining through I guess :). I seldom think of HERE docs, but that would be a much tider way to do that. In actual use the script is accessed through a desktop short cut and the folders to be processed are drag and dropped onto the short cut. The `print` could probably be replaced with POD. Perl is Huffman encoded by design.	[reply] [d/l]
