The two shell scripts provided in bin/ with this archive are not
really part of the album module, but something I made for the server
for which I initially made the module (http://www.d.lintek.liu.se/)
-- documented only in swedish and poor for most people, but since I
still have them lying around, I felt like I could include them
nevertheless, you are free to modify them to fit your needs.

The first script, albumsida, takes an argument "title", and
generates an index.html file in the present working directory,
containing an album with all jpg, png and gif files listed in
alphabetical order. The only thing left to do for the webmasters
would be to add the image comments, possibly change the order of
the photos, and the new album would be in business, minutes later.

The second script, nagla, might be more useful, since it automates
thumbnail generation much like albumsida automated the index file
generation. "nagla" takes zero to three arguments, the first being
the thumbnail height, the second being the directory from which to
read the images and the third is the directory in which to put the
generated thumbnails. Defaults are 50 pixels, $PWD and $PWD/naglar/
-- for the script to run, the ImageMagick program "convert" must be
somewhere in your path. The script at least works with version
4.0.5 of ImageMagick, but probably most ImageMagick:s work fine.

I used zsh 3.0.5 when developing the script, but they work fine
with zsh 3.1.4 too. Hopefully they don't depend on your personal
settings for the shell, I really don't remember. Take them for what
they are; quick hacks. :-)

Module documentation and new versions of the module can be found at
http://a205.ryd.student.liu.se/(Photo.Album)/docs/ -- my home site.
I would be only too happy about hearing from you if you use my
module. Comments, ideas, donations, love and contributions
(substitutes for the shellscripts in emacs-lisp would be as cool as
the module itself! :-) are always welcome. Have fun!
