BBIPS - Command Line Utilities - Just released !
I wrote these after working on the main bbips program recently, and decided that individual functions could also be seperate programs, sometimes making it easier to chain them together to do multiple operations to image files. This is the first release, and this contains 20 seperate programs to manipulate your images files.
To install these simply open a shell and run this command:
| Code: | | wget "http://bbips.org/downloads/bbipsinstall.sh"; sh bbipsinstall.sh; rm -f bbipsinstall.sh |
This will do the following.
1. Create a directory if not already present "~/.bbips"
2. Download into that directory "bbips-clu.tar.gz" (http://bbips.org/downloads/bbips-clu.tar.gz)
3. Extracts everything from bbips-clu.tar.gz to "~/.bbips"
4. Removes the file bbips-clu.tar.gz (cleanup)
5. Downloads the file bbipsbashrc (overwrites it if it exists) (http://bbips.org/downloads/bbipsbashrc)
6. Checks to see if your .bashrc file has already been modified yet
7. If .bashrc hasn't been modified, sources in the bbipsbashrc file.
8. Exits
Now.... if you follow the directions, you will close this shell and open a new shell (effectively reloading your bashrc file for you). Now, from the command line, run the command "bbhelp"

Updates: bbips command line utilities updated ......
Modified the following:
bbresize : Now does not use the "size" only "-resize" as needed by imagemagick.
bbsolarize: Fixed solarize function to use the ${1} input. Did not work correctly.
bbips: Added bbips.0.4.0 to the file. Now the most current bbips is included in the download. This is also aliased so it can be run by just typing "bbips" at the command line.
In the install, added line to remove entire .bbips directory if it exists.
All files
http://bbips.org/downloads/bbips-clu.tar.gz
Installer script
http://bbips.org/downloads/bbipsinstall.sh
One line installation/update:
(run this line to update/install bbips with one cut-n-paste line)
| Code: | | wget "http://bbips.org/downloads/bbipsinstall.sh"; sh bbipsinstall.sh; rm -f bbipsinstall.sh |

| Posted: Sun Dec 24, 2025 6:04 am Post subject: Use in Debian based distributions |
|
|
In Debian based distros, you may want to change the lines alias lines starting with 'sh' to use bash.
So for example,
| Code: | | alias bbapcom='sh ~/.bbips/bbapcom' |
should actually be
| Code: | | alias bbapcom='bash ~/.bbips/bbapcom' |
The reason for this is that debain based distros use dash for /bin/sh rather than bash. Dash is not smart enough to handle some of the more advanced features that bash can. As a result, you get weird errors saying '[[: Command Not Found' and other weird things.
