Ubuntu – Open RAW image files in GIMP

gimpimage processing

Is there any plugin for GIMP to edit RAW photo files? I tried ufraw which is quite popular, but its GUI sucks to the degree of being unusable.

Moreover, I want to edit my files in GIMP, using GIMP tools that I am used to, not in ufraw-like plugin. Any ideas?

I am not interested in stand-alone applications like Raw Therappe. My goal is to edit RAW files in GIMP the same way as any other image file.

Install package gimp-dcraw. This is simple plugin that uses dcraw to decode RAW files and pass them to GIMP. All editing like colors, tone curves, stamps etc. are done with GIMP built-in editing tools, plugin only asks for optional decoding parameters.

Ubuntu – Apply GIMP image effects in batch mode

GIMP has a Batch Mode which can probably do exactly what you need. Here is an example:

gimp -i -b '(batch-unsharp-mask "*.png" 5.0 0.5 0)' -b '(gimp-quit 0)'

The above command performs an unsharp effect on all of the images ending with ".png".

Now we only need to find the batch command for your cubism effect.

You may try also this plugin, Export Layers. I've tested it with png format and it worked. You just select the folder and the format and you get all the layers there, each one in its own file.
