Because I'm a command line kinda person at heart. ;-) I was just thinking I
could do a 'for' loop in the directory with all the image files to reduce them
to 16-bit color. Yes, one can script things with the Gimp, but I've never done
it, but I have done some looping things with ffmpeg for some videos, and was
just looking for something similar.
