compund commands

Am having difficulty combining a series of operations. Each of the operations works when done by itself.

Using Ubuntu Linux 12.10, I want to resize a folder of images and also rename those images in sequence. That is, the folder contains (only) images numbered in sequence named IMG_0545.jpg to IMG_0742.jpg. The images are all 2400x1600. I want to resize them all to 600x400, and rename them sequentially, starting with the new name gl1.jpg.

Thanks very much for guidance.

Make two new folders, folder1 and folder1

Put all the images you want to convert and only those in folder1

cd to folder 1

convert * -resize 600x400 -scene 1 fullpath2/folder2/gl%d.jpg

Fred,

Works like . . . Magick!

Also, looked at your scripts. A whole new realm to me. Spectacular.

Thanks very much!
