A utility script to batch-process files recursively using Pixelator (http://pixelatorapp.com/)

pixelator_batch_process.py

"""
INSTRUCTIONS:
Replace command = '''...''' with the desired pixelator command you want to run recursively.
To get the command you want, you can click on View --> Shell Command from Pixelator GUI.

WARNING:
This will replace the original files! If you want to create a copy, change the following line:
full_command = command.replace('__in_file__', fullpath).replace('__out_file__', fullpath)

To something like:
full_command = command.replace('__in_file__', fullpath).replace('__out_file__', "some-output-file-name")
"""
