Free thomas image editor software for linux

stic bundles a few Linux tools which are intended to support the task of collecting an unreasonable amount of pictures (preferrably in JPEG format).
similar
a program for detecting duplicate or very similar images. It maintains a
database of characteristic color samples which it compares with submitted
pictures. similar depends on libjpeg and ImageMagick s convert (on a
modern Linux desktop system these components should already be present).
Storage medium may be a usual filesystem or a MySQL database. There
also is a MySQL UDF extension to compare image samples within SQL queries.
similar contains the communications module described at sagent.
simv
a core program to perform file management tasks on an image collection.
Its main purpose is to coordinate file movements with the content of
similars database. This applies to importing new files which get tested
against the existent collection, as well as to inform similar about moving
and deleting files within the collection.
simv depends on an external image viewer like ImageMagick s display
(should already be present on a modern Linux desktop system) or John
Bradleys xv (quite a fast one).
simv contains the communications module described at sagent.
sagent
a standalone version of the communications module used in simv and
similar. This software receives input from its start terminal and multiple
clients, distributes several types of output back to them, and is also
able to act itself as such a client.
Since communications mainly use TCP/IP there is an encryption layer
(Blowfish with 128 bit keys) which provides user authentication. Any
single activity of such a user may be particularly permitted or denied.
Secure connections should be possible that way as long as one can defend
the keyfiles and programs on client and server host against foreign
access.
Front-end connection software is available in C, Tcl/Tk and PHP3 to build
custom clients. In the most primitive case even telnet can act as a
client.
The standalone program sagent may be used as communications node in a tree
of clients. Another purpose is to be a shell frontend which sends commands
to a server and receives its replies.
snntpbatch
a command line based NNTP (newsgroups) client. It is mainly intended for
automatic download of images by use of a filter language. Nevertheless it
also downloads the message texts and converts them to HTML code which
includes the downloaded images. Also, it is capable of automatically
posting sets of images to the newsgroups.
The tools are designed to be very independent of the system flavor. On an
average Linux desktop there should be no need to update existing system
components. Actually one could use stic without having display equipment for
graphics.
Any program activity which is possible in dialog may also be performed in
batch runs. Therefore the tools are quite suitable for users who like to get
boring tasks automated and manual tasks simplified.
All tools code is open source and distributed under BSD license.

Enhancements:
- The new encrypted protocol version 0.2 is standard now : SHA-1 seal, 256 bit keys, variable chaining initialization vector.
- The protocol of a connection is chosen by the client and may or may not be accepted by the server.
- See sagent command -security options clientprotocol , serverprotocol.

Semi-Batched-Image-Editor program is an image editor for Linux.
The problem: Got a huge amount of scanned pictures (from your digital camera, or as Picture-CD from your favorite lab)? Want to rotate some of them to the right orientation? Select a good detail? Scale to a given output format? Want to do this with as less as possible mouseclicks?
The solution: SeBIE - the Semi-Batched-Image-Editor.
Main features:
- Input filename selection via regular expressions.
- Create output filename via regular expression and substitution.
- Select image details with a given proportion.
- Scale to a given output format when saving.
- Apply some color correction (at the moment only gamma curve correction is possible).
Why Semi-Batched? Because SeBIE is not fully batch processing. A rest of user interaction is still needed (and wanted).
SeBIE is written in C using the gdk/gtk (glib-2.0.7/gtk+-2.0.9) toolkit.
Installation:
Get the source distribution from the download page and unpack:
tar -xvzf sebie-0.9.tar.gz
Change to the sebie source directory:
cd sebie-0.9
Run the configure script:
./configure
Build the executable:
make all
And install it as root:
make install
Start the application using the command sebie....
Enhancements:
- Add events delete_event and destroy to main window.
- Handling resizable drawing area.

Image rotator can be used to automatically detect and rotate landscape/portrait photos from digital cameras.
Currently, only outdoor photos are recognized. Image rotator is a command line tool which uses an artifical neural network to detect the orientation of images. Image reading, scaling, and rotation are done with the ImageMagick library.
Enhancements:
- The --verify option can now be used to decrease the number of false decisions.
- This is done by running the image three times (original, rotated left, rotated right) through the neural network.
- A small memory leak was fixed.

Show the Image is a Firefox extension that shows the largest image in the page.

A very simple extension that can be used to show the largest image on the page - what you want to look at - without all the banners and layout around it.

After installing the extension you can add a new button to the toolbar by right-clicking on the toolbar, clicking customize and dragging the icon into place.

Left-clicking the button (or pressing Control+Q) will take you to the largest image in the current page, left-clicking (or pressing Control+Q) again will take you back again.

Middle-clicking the button (or pressing Control+Shift+Q) will open the largest image in the current page in a new tab, middle-clicking (or pressing Control+Shift+Q) while looking at the image on its own will close the tab if more than one is open.

Right clicking the button will go through all the tabs to the right of the current one, displaying the largest image in each.

Right clicking on a link will give the option to "Show Image following this link" which will open the largest image found at that link in a new tab.

Image::ExifTool is a Perl module that can read and write meta information.

SYNOPSIS

use Image::ExifTool ImageInfo;

# ---- Simple procedural usage ----

# Get hash of meta information tag names/values from an image
$info = ImageInfo(a.jpg);

# ---- Object-oriented usage ----

# Create a new Image::ExifTool object
$exifTool = new Image::ExifTool;

# Extract meta information from an image
$exifTool->ExtractInfo($file, %options);

# Get list of tags in the order they were found in the file
@tagList = $exifTool->GetFoundTags(File);

# Get the value of a specified tag
$value = $exifTool->GetValue($tag, $type);

# Get a tag description
$description = $exifTool->GetDescription($tag);

# Get the group name associated with this tag
$group = $exifTool->GetGroup($tag, $family);

# Set a new value for a tag
$exifTool->SetNewValue($tag, $newValue);

# Write new meta information to a file
$success = $exifTool->WriteInfo($srcfile, $dstfile);

# ...plus a host of other useful methods...

ExifTool provides an extensible set of perl modules to read and write meta information in image, audio and video files, including the maker note information of many digital cameras by various manufacturers such as Canon, Casio, FujiFilm, JVC/Victor, Kodak, Leaf, Minolta/Konica-Minolta, Nikon, Olympus/Epson, Panasonic/Leica, Pentax/Asahi, Ricoh, Sanyo and Sigma/Foveon.

Transcoding is the process by which a data object in one representation is converted into another representation. Typical examples include conversion between different formats of the same media type (e.g., an image encoded in a certain format is transcoded into an image encoded in a second format), as well as conversion between media types (e.g., speech to text). In addition to format conversion, transcoding also allows a data object to be compressed or transformed.
GAIA Image Transcoder (GIT) project is an open source library that operates image transcoding, with a special focus on mobile applications. GIT was originally developed by Open Reply team as a part of a content adaptation and delivery framework and its publication under LGPL license is the first step of the entire framework release process.
GIT comes in two parts:
- a transformation and transcoding library that performs image adaptation to mobile device using information retrieved from WURFL file
- a very simple JSP tag library that enables library utilization into a J2EE environment
The transcoding library works as a transformation pipeline. The pipeline is composed by a set of filters. A filter could operate directly on the image body or indirectly on the associated meta-information. GIT architecture supports the management cycle of such pipes while GIT tag libraries simplifies their definition.
