Get Image type in a macro

[lechristophe]

Hi everyone,

I would like to know if there is a macro function that returns the type
(8-bit, 16-bit, RGB, etc...) of the active image. I can get it by
spitting "Image Info" to retrieve it but I would be very surprized if
there is not a direct function for that. Unfortuntely my eyes are still
a bit closed on this monday morning and I can't find it on the macro
reference page...

Thank you very much,

Christophe Leterrier


PS/ Thanks a lot to Jerome Mutterer and Johannes Schindelin for their
macros (that streamline an iterative name using zeros) !

bitDepth()

e.g.

if (bitDepth() != 8) exit ("8 bit image required.");
