batch conversion tool, not just command line but a graphical Assistant/Wizard for converting files
note a Wizard/Assistant like OpenOffice provides for batch conversion is only a suggested implementation, \
the point is we know from their example this could be a useful feature. there are a variety of different \
ways this could be implemented and even a simple version which works would be great and more \
sophisticated versions could be added later.
As I am sure you know Koffice include koconverter but it is not very discoverable and most ordinary users \
will not want to use the command line. This functionality already exists, the Koffice developers should \
show off the hard work they have done and provide a user interface so that everyone can make use of it.
This is a feature which could be potentially incoroporated into every KOffie app in a consistent way and \
help encourage the use of OpenDocument.
Krita in particular requires ImageMagick a powerful tool for batch processing and it seems almost like a \
waste not to provide user with an easy to use graphical frontend to better exploit and leverage this \
existing functionality (done right you could kick the pants off of the Automation tools in Adobe \
Photoshop and it would be largely about putting a nice front on all the hard work which has already been \
done). ____________________________________
