NAME
curvr -- Automatic approximation of typical Photoshop actions
SYNOPSIS
curvr <input> [<process> [<param>...]] <output>
curvall <directory> [<process>]
curvrmail
DESCRIPTION
Editing images is a painful and repetitive process. The good hacker
automates things like this. Aaron's filtr script doesn't quite do
what I want and neither does the GraphicsMagick command line tool.
This tool does automatic and acceptable approximations of the curves
tool I use most often in Photoshop.
The supporting scripts and config files enable the phone -> server
-> Flickr workflow.
ACTIONS
curve (default)
First normalizes the image by tucking white and black points,
then applies a color map keeping whites and blacks consistent
while darkening the mid-range. Approximates a slightly
downward curve in the Photoshop Curves palette.
bigcurve
Bigger. 60% bigger even.
anticurve
Opposite of curve, boosting mid-range instead of darkening it.
DEPENDENCIES
GraphicsMagick
Developed using GraphicsMagick 1.1.10 on Linux. Will likely
work with 1.1.x and on other platforms, but I don't care to try.
Flickr::Upload::FireEagle
For uploading and automatic geotagging. See the small patch that
prevents the FireEagle staleness check for localities.
