WebP Image Converter is a simple utility that allows you to convert WebP images to JPEG or PNG format. It uses a graphical user interface to select files and choose the output format.
The script requires the following dependencies:
- Zenity: for the GUI dialogs.
- WebP: for the dwebp tool to convert WebP images to other formats.
- libjpeg-turbo-progs: for the cjpeg tool to convert images to JPEG format.
You can install these packages on Ubuntu with the following commands:
sudo apt-get install zenity
sudo apt-get install webp
sudo apt-get install libjpeg-turbo-progs
To use the script, simply double-click the WebpConverter.desktop file on your desktop. This will open a file selection dialog where you can select a .webp image. After you select an image, a list dialog will open where you can select the output format (.jpeg or .png). The script will then convert the image to the selected format.
To install the script, follow these steps:
Clone or download the project. Move the WebpConverter.desktop file to your desktop:
mv /path/to/project/WebpConverter.desktop ~/Desktop/
Make the .desktop file executable:
chmod +x ~/Desktop/WebpConverter.desktop
Replace /path/to/project/ with the actual path to your project directory. Also you might need to right click on the icon first and press "Allow Launching".
