I have folders with photos in each in tiff format.
What i am looking to do is merge the images in each folder and name the output with the folder name it resides in.
I have folders with images loaded in each:
( photo1.tiff, photo2.tiff, photo3.tiff, photo4.tiff)
(photoa.tiff, photob.tiff,)
I've tried to merge all the tiffs in the individual folders using the script below.
#!/bin/bash dirs=$(find . -type f -name "*.tiff" | xargs dirname |sort -u) r d in $dirs; do #ls $d/*.tiff # just debug info, should list all desired tiffs #echo $(cut -d/ -f3 <<<$d) # debug info, should be desired output file name convert $d/*.tiff $(cut -d/ -f3 <<<$d).tiff done
When i run the script i get a single tiff which combines all photos from all folders. How can I batch convert subfolders that contain multiple images (TIFFs) and make a single tiff in each folder and give the image the name of its folder? Any suggestions greatly welcomed.

Much better. I've also added [tag:bash] and reopened. – DavidPostill – 2018-05-09T08:34:21.237
