The name of the currently loaded script is displayed in the

Mini Console area at the bottom

of the LCD on the left hand side.

 

The Mini Console area is where script information is displayed, messages included by diligent script authors to keep users informed of the progression of a script, and to direct input from the

user for setting script parameters. Messages are defined by the “print” command in scripts.

Miscellaneous stuff < Main Menu

File browser

Use

to navigate

Browse files in the various CHDK folders.

Use Up /Down key to highlight, FUNC.SET to select a folder,

Right key to select file, Left key for pop up menu for Cut, Copy, Delete,

Select Inverse, RAW sum, RAW average, Purge RAW, Sub from marked,

DNG -> CHDK RAW.

•RAW Merge

When selecting (highlighting) files in the file browser mode, by using your RIGHT navigational button, you now have 2 functions available on the LEFT navigational button menu.

If after using either of these features and you would like to see the resulting image without having to load them into a computer and using RAW viewing software, use the "RAW Develop" feature on the "RAW Parameters" menu to create a JPG file for playback in the camera.

When using either of these options the resulting new RAW file will use whatever last filename was selected for merging as the prefix to the new RAW filename, and a WAV suffix will be added to it so you know which last-of-a-sequence files were used for merging. This also circumvents any confusion later when using utilities like DNG4PS with trying to merge corresponding JPG EXIF data with the original RAW data, where filenames could get drastically out of order by creating new JPG filename numbers.
