My brain-dead way of doing this is to use a bash shell script, or perhaps a
simple 'find' command (I use Linux, but I am sure that a DOS proficient
person knows how to do this also). Let's say that the images are of FITS
type:
runimageJ `find -name *.fits`
where runimageJ is the command line that you use to load imageJ (e.g.
"java -cp $ImageJDIR/ij.jar ImageJ" ).
But, say you want to open them all up in order. Assume that directories are
labeled 000 to 999 and that images are labeled "image000.fits" to
"image999.fits". Assume that we run this script in the parent directory of
all image subdirectories:
-----begin bash script-----
#!/bin/bash
for DIR `seq -w 0 999`; do
if [ -d "$DIR" ] ; then
FILES=""
for i in `seq -w 0 999`; do
IMAGE="image${i}.fits"
if [ -f "$IMAGE" ]; then
FILES="$FILES $IMAGE"
fi;
done;
# We open them up a directory at a time to speed up the process.
if [ "$FILES" != "" ] ; then
runimageJ "$FILES"
fi;
fi;
done;
-----end bash script-----
For some reason, on Linux, (perhaps also windows), I have to give absolute
paths to each file that I want to open (instead of paths relative to the
current directory).
Have fun,
Spencer
