Installing

BINS

#tar xvfj bins-1.1.29.tar.bz2
#cd bins-1.1.29/
#./install.sh

Perl Libraries

#tar xvfz Perl_Library-version.tar.gz
#cd Perl_Library-version/
#perl Makefile.PL
#make
#make test
#make install

Configuring

The configuration files are all put into ~/.bins/, and the file binsrc is the most useful in my opinion. Change it according to your art.

Using

Put all your images in a directory, say ~/images. Your images can be ordered into sub-directories. Then, create an empty directory, where the album will be created, say ~/album:

#mkdir ~/album

and run bins with the two directories (source and destination) as parameters:

#bins ~/images ~/album

This will create an HTML album, with sub-albums, thumbnails and scaled images.
