I recently started learning Perl and I used it's Gtk2 bindings to create an application.

It uses jpeginfo (already in the Ubuntu and Debian repositories) to scan for damaged images then sorts them into good and bad folders.

It's hosted on GitHub.

Any feedback would appreciated.

The idea stemmed from helping a friend recover deleted photos and wanting an application like this. There are GUI's on Windows but only jpeginfo actually detected damaged images accurately.
