Hi everyone,

I recently got me a new and unused Colormunki Photo, as SpyderPrint was too much hazzle.

I found a farily simple script on github AutomatedArgyllPrinter, by Jintak Han. I used this as basis for creating a much more advanced version, see link below. My new script is for macOS and Linux, and aimed at Colormunki.

However, menu choice 2 to 5 can be used by other instruments supported by Argyll. Menu choice 1 in my script presents a set of pre-defined targets to generate, with Colormunki in mind, but choosing other than Colormunki as intrument allows to make target from custom arguments and a default setting. Many settings can be configured, and anyone is free to modify the script to their liking, but it would be cool if that work is shared on the forum, if anyone does.

Hope someone will test it and give feedback. Sorry, I do not have windows, so this is not for you that only have that.

The script works well for me now, but I am sure bugs exist (log file content is not ideal I noticed). There is a ReadMe.md file for installation help and user guidance, but a lot is self explanatory.

The project has now been published on github.com and can be downloaded from:

Cheers,

I have now updated the script to support Linux. That was doable, but I doubt I can support Windows without rewriting the whole script or porting to python, which I cannot do.

Updated the first post also.

Hope this allows more people to try it out. I have not teste on Linux, only verified quality, logic and syntax using AI.
