Image editing: iBatch 1.0
Gero Birkenfeld's Image Batcher ("iBatch") is supposed to simplify renaming and converting several image files. The images of a directory are shown as thumbnails and the user can choose the files and the steps of procedure.
iBatch 1.0 is now written in AmiBlitz instead of ARexx. Changes since version 0.4:

- integrated thumbnail viewer + list editor
- GUI based preferences
- OS4 "lookalike" requester (also under OS3.x)
- no ARexx-script
- c:ImageConverter Shell command is not needed ay longer
- GUI is not AWNPipe-based. Now based on Stormwizard
- progress bar
- same executables for OS3.x up to OS4.x
- support of locale.library
- can be also used with lower screen solutions
The program requires AmigaOS 3/4, 24-bit-datatypes, a RTG-system (picasso96 or CybergraphX), 2MB Chip-RAM and 16MB Fast-RAM as well as wizard.library, jpeg.library and zlib.library.
