I have only seen system saved jpeg files with the extension provided as .jpg. My system does recognize file-name.jpeg as a jpg file, but linux does not use the extension to set file type.....

That is just bizarre! I hated the stinking .jpeg extension, but I couldn't find any place to turn it off or fix it in kde4 after my first kde4.3 (beta something) install. How ironic.

That's great news. The 4 character extension was just weird, thankfully for i in $(ls dirWjpeg); do mv $i ${i%.jpeg}.jpg done

and ideally .jpeg files will be saved as .jpeg when edited as well (please triage that, by the way). I cannot find the bug at the moment (I am at the university), but if you want to read it let me know and I'll dig it up this evening.

I'll look it up, it will either be at bugzilla.novell.com or bugs.kde.org. Thanks. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.

Sure, that will work too. It is worth learning mmv though. It is a powerful tool to have around Anders -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Actually, no it won't. I just tried it, and I couldn't make it work until I dropped the $. It seems rename doesn't understand regular expressions

Hmmm, I thought it did handle regex expansion properly. Looks like I was wrong on that - using: rename jpeg jpg *.jpeg Would work, though, as long as "jpeg" only appeared as an extension and not as part of the filename. Another option would be: rename .jpeg .jpg *.jpeg As that would be fooled only by a file with a name like this.jpeg.jpeg Jim -- Jim Henderson Please keep on-topic replies on the list so everyone benefits -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Listmates,

Alright, what in the heck is going on. Ever since kde4 first emerged, it changed the default jpeg extension fro .jpg to .jpeg. Just one of those things you have to live with, right?

Now I have directories full of the .jpeg extension files. For example:

http://www.3111skyline.com/download/openSUSE_bugs/kde4/screenshots/

Today, after a fresh 4.3.1 update, I go to save another kde4 bug screenshot, and now the default extension is ".jpg"

What gives? Is it going to stay ".jpg" now, or is the just another temporary bug in kde4?

The default will stay .jpg, and ideally .jpeg files will be saved as .jpeg when edited as well (please triage that, by the way). I cannot find the bug at the moment (I am at the university), but if you want to read it let me know and I'll dig it up this evening.
