Great!!! It works perfect 4 me! Big thanks :)

It is dificult to say.. I have seen syntax error, or... no action,
but I believe U R right.

Lets say if it is impossible than I have to find a benefit...
think... think... well, there is benefit:
I have "undo" working and if something is wrong with a picture (i.e
to heavy sharpen) I can go step back and make all things manually.
Kind of final check out. In this point it will be better when
displayed image is viewed 100% (1:1). It is one command... but I do
not remember...

Your notes are very important, thank U. But I know the limitation of
.jpg files. This way I make just for one puprpose: network preview
of real estate, for example:

For printed matters I can work one or two (or more) hours with each
image and no script is necessary :)
One more time - thanks.
Adam.
