In response to a friend's request, I have written a script that adds commands to queue up a set of files and then to allow editing the files one-at-a-time.

An example of a typical usage would have the user running the File->Sequential Edit->Choose Files... command to open a dialog that allows choosing all of the JPEG files in a particular directory (by specifying *.jpg for the filename wildcard pattern). The first file would then be opened, and when the user is done editing it, she would run the command File->Sequential Edit->Save and Open Next; repeating this process for each file matching the pattern.

WARNING: This script provides no confirmation dialog about overwriting the original file, nor does it warn about the image not being saved as an XCF file before the image is closed and the next one opened. The script is intended to optimize a specific workflow of making minor changes to many files sequentially. It is not intended for normal image editing workflows.

Further details about the script and a download link are available at http://chiselapp.com/user/saulgoode/rep ... ntial-edit . Please report any bugs you find here or by submitting a ticket to my bug tracker.

Sounds interesting, I will find an excuse to test.
