Jpegjudge - guess jpeg picture quality JPEGJUDGE(1)
Bugs
It should be possible to judge pictures stored in non-lossy formats, too, since conversion to jpeg may
influence the measurement.
The quality indicator is non-linear, and could be much better.
The algorithm to calculate the quality was made up in 10 minutes, after staring at various histograms.
Description
Jpegjudge reads each argument and attempts to guess the quality with which it was saved. Currently, only
a rough indicator is calculcated, ranging from 0 (lowest quality) to 1000 (highest quality), an extension
to other formats would be straightforward, but isn't planned.
It can read all pictures the IJGjpeglibrary can read, i.e. normal and progressive jpeg's.
OPTIONS-b Display only quality indicator, suppress other information (filenames).
-h,--help
