hello again,
I tried to write the script that will read img file and create thumbs from 
the dir, and this is what I came up with but its not working, it spells out a 
parse error on n = no_ext(#{f}), what am I doing wrong?
----------------------------------------------------
require "magick"

dir = "."

def no_ext(n)
  r="#{n}"
  r.sub(/\.gif/,'')
end

  
def createThumbFile(f)
  img = Magick::Image.new(#{f})
  img.scale('60%')
  n = no_ext(#{f}) 
  img.write("filename"=>"#{n}_thumb.gif")
end

Dir.foreach(dir){|file|
  createThumbFile("file")
}
-----------------------------------------------------------
