Thanks for the script Mochi. The scrip seems to work when rotating the images a couple of times, however if they are rotated more than this they start to do weird things such as flip, or don't do anything.

Thanks Mochi - your script for multiple files works great and thanks for your explanation to get the hidden menu. As for imageMagick it appears to be installed ok on my system as if I put convert into a console I get the following: # convert Version: ImageMagick 6.6.9-7 2014-03-06 Q16 http://www.ima...

I made a puppy with Tor, bitmessage and Truecrypt. If you are using the precise puppy these can just be configured from the puppy package manager accessing all the Ubuntu software.

PeasyScale can do this with JPEGs From the ROX context menu? I played with jpegtran and couldn't get it to rotate the image in place. It seems to require a dedicated output file. If that's the only way then this should work: #!/bin/sh jpegtran -rotate 90 "$1" > /tmp/rotated.jpg; mv /tmp/r...

You could run a Windows program called Irfanview under Wine (the Windows emulator) in Puppy. To rotate an image in Irfanview you would just press the "R" button, to rotate left press "L", to flip horizontally press "H", to flip vertically press "V". I used to...

following a message from another user I think I may just go down the wine route.

I did try installing it from the repository on precise puppy, but I got some buggy behavior.

I found the right one by logging into my router and looking for the ip which is attributed to the aiport express MAC address. 2) I really did not realize how simple this was to set up. I went looking for ...
