Creating thumbnails with Windowpipe

Yesterday I created a small program called Windowpipe. IT allows you to drop files in a window and it will a script on that file. To give you a better idea of how this works, I created a small screencast.

So what’s happening? First I drag the shoes.jpg file to the windowpipe window, which I started before with createthumb.pl. After the drag a new file is created called thumb_shoes.jpg. Then I show the two files. Simple.
