<BR>
I’d like those of you with different systems to test this script if you could. As part of my updates to the GIS Manager, I’ve expanded the functionality of d.out.png. <BR>
<BR>
The script I’ve attached here—d.out.file—will export the current display monitor to several different file formats: PNG and PPM (using Glynn’s update of the PNG driver) from the PNG driver, and to TIFF, JPEG, and BMP using gdal_translate. PNG compression, JPEG compression, and selections for transparent background, white (now default), and black backgrounds are supported.<BR>
<BR>
If this works OK on other systems besides my Mac (OSX 10.4), I’ll add it to the CVS to replace d.out.png.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks much<BR>
Michael<BR>
