Nautilus Actions - Rendering SVGs on right click

I used the same set of scripts to render a bunch of SVGs since I am in the icon bussiness…until now! Those original scripts were easily customisable but had to be copied to the active directory every time I wanted to render some icons. On Saturday, Ulisse introduced a really nice Nautilus action for rendering SVG files and now I have the rendering action right below my finger!

All you need is librsvg-binary and zenity. Then just select any SVG and choose “rsvg2png” (”Render SVG” in my case). I will still keep my scripts, they are handy if I want to render recursively everything in subdirectories, but this new action is really usefull. Go and check it out yourself! :-)
