When starting the GUI version of ScanTailor, is it possible to pass a parameter that tells ST to create a new project using the files at a specified location? Something like:
./scantailor -np /pathtofiles/*.tiff
I am using ST on Mac OS X.
Does GUI version take startup parameters?

Re: Does GUI version take startup parameters?
No. You can give it a project file though.
The CLI version should be able to create a project file given a directory with images.

Scan Tailor experimental doesn't output 96 DPI images. It's just what your software shows when DPI information is missing. Usually what you get is input DPI times the resolution enhancement factor.
Re: Does GUI version take startup parameters?
Only in two steps.
Step 1:
scantailor -o=project_file.ScanTailor /path/to/files/*.tif out/
(the last parameter must be an existing directory)
This will process all given images and save result in 'project_file.ScanTailor' and processed files into given 'out' directory.
For more info run scantailor -h
Step 2:
scantailor project_file.ScanTailor
Or both steps on one line
scantailor -o=project_file.ScanTailor /path/to/files/*.tif out/ && scantailor project_file.ScanTailor
In GUI you can jump directly to step 6 and check the result.

Re: Does GUI version take startup parameters?
Would step 1 be with the cli version (in directory 1) and step 2 with the GUI version (in directory 2)?
Re: Does GUI version take startup parameters?
oops, the first step uses scantailor-cli, of course
it is not necessary to execute both steps from the same directory. you can also run scantailor gui without project file as an argument and open it from gui.
