I don't understand why we couldn't just leave this to the user to
configure this, instead of trying to have more or less complex logic,
trying to figure this out automatically. `find-dired' has the same
problem in that it will find (haha) the wrong "find" on w32. It also
has more or less hard-coded syntax in it.
Juanma, you know how tumme.el currently does this; that works quite
well, does it not?
For others, this is how tumme currently handle this:
(defcustom tumme-cmd-create-thumbnail-program
"convert"
"*Executable used to create thumbnail. Used together with
`tumme-cmd-create-thumbnail-options'."
:type 'string
:group 'tumme)
...
(defcustom tumme-cmd-create-thumbnail-options
"%e -size %sx%s \"%f\" -resize %sx%s +profile \"*\" jpeg:\"%t\""
"*Format of command used to create thumbnail image. Available
options are %e which is replaced by
`tumme-cmd-create-thumbnail-program', %s which is replaced by
`tumme-thumb-size', %f which is replaced by the file name of the
original image and %t which is replaced by the file name of the
thumbnail file."
:type 'string
:group 'tumme)
...
(defun tumme-create-thumb (file)
"Using the convert program, create thumbnail image for FILE and
place it in `tumme-dir'"
(let* ((size (int-to-string tumme-thumb-size))
(command
(format-spec
tumme-cmd-create-thumbnail-options
(list
(cons ?e tumme-cmd-create-thumbnail-program)
(cons ?s size)
(cons ?f file)
(cons ?t (expand-file-name (tumme-thumb-name file)))))))
(if (file-exists-p tumme-dir)
(if (not (file-directory-p tumme-dir))
(error "%s exists but is not a directory!" tumme-dir))
(make-directory tumme-dir))
(shell-command command nil)))
