poster is a command line tool that allows you to merge more images in one. Given a source folder containing the images, the program resizes all the images at the same dimension (default is 120x90) and calculates the disposition of the images in a rectangle. If the number of the images is a prime number, and one of the image can not fit into a rectangle, the tool will skip one images, until the total number of the images will fit into a rectangle.
Simply run poster in the folder containing your images. If you run poster -h the default options will be displayed
Usage of poster:
-dest_dir=".": the destination directory that will contain the grid
-log_file="stdout": specify a log file, as default it will print on stdout
-source_dir=".": the origin directory that contains the images to compose the grid
-thumb_height=90: the height of a single thumb
-thumb_width=120: the width of a single thumbTo specify a different source directory as the current direcotry, a different destination directory as the current one, and a logfile, do as follow.
poster -dest_dir=/home/username/dest -source_dir=/home/username/source -log_file=/home/username/my.log
