If I have images 1.jpg, 2.jpg ... 5.jpg, I can do this But if I have images 001.jpg, 002.jpg ... 005.jpg, the above does not work, and the following also does not work.
Is there a way to do that? (I have more than 5 images, so 00[1-5].jpg is not the answer! haha)

Thanks,

Dave

From raw notes in IM Examples, File Handling, Read Modifiers

The %03d specifys insert the numbers as 3 zero padded digits (See man page for the "printf()" function.

NOTE this is NOT a command line shell construct but a IM construct, so you need to quote the
input filename.


The [5-7].jpg construct is a shell expandsion, and not done by IM itself. The shell replaces it with 5.jpg 6.jpg 7.jpg if those files exists.

Great, thanks.
