I found why it didn't work for my wife. The script use Zenity for
simple dialogues. She has Ubuntu 10.04 with Zenity 2.30.0, I have
2.32.0 in Ubuntu 10.10. It seems like the --progress option in 2.30.0
does not support --no-cancel, so after removing the --no-cancel line
it worked perfectly on her machine too.
Here's the script, if anyone wants to know. The story behind it is
that we use the Opera web browser and she wanted to copy every image
in the Opera cache folder to another folder, but only images that are
big enough. In this case we tried with 18000 pixels and it seems to
work OK. There will still be more pictures than she wants, but the
manual job will decrease a lot anyway compared to just dragging
everything from the cache folder and its sub folders.
All the files in the Opera cache folder are named like ”oprXXXXX.tmp”
where XXXXX is a mix of upper case letters and numbers, like
”opr2DLE1.tmp”.
ImageMagick needs to be installed it. I'm using it to detect images
and their format (usually GIF, JPEG or PNG, I have seen no other
formats so far).
Zenity is used to show a progress bar and for letting the user create
or select a folder to save the files in.
So here we go:
#!/bin/bash
# Copies image files from the Opera cache folder to a place of your choice.
# An image is not copied unless its size (in pixels) is bigger than MINPIXELS.
#
# ImageMagick and Zenity (at least 2.30.0) needs to be installed.

# Select or create a folder for saving the images.
