[olug] Image manipulation question

[Rob Townley]

i feel your pain... you would think making collages would be much more common.

How well this works largely depends on the file format.  When using
TIFF file formats, it may convert to a multipage TIFF instead of a
collage.  On the other hand, it may appear to work, but delete
everything but the current page.

I eventually got it to work with JPEG files, but often with loss of
resolution.  Did the job though.

convert.exe "ToBeAppended*.JPEG.*"   +append   "Appended.JPEG"
