Hi,
I’d like to announce a command-line tool which converts PSD or PSB files to layered XCF (v1), in RLE or uncompressed formats. I am aware that Gimp imports PSD, but I’ve seen it reported that some files do not import in layers, while this utility always produces a layered XCF. Also, there may be situations where this conversion is required but neither Photoshop nor Gimp is available.
* supports 8-bit RGB, Grey Scale and Indexed modes
* portable (tested on OS X, Linux, Windows)
* open source (GPL)
* very fast
* may help to recover damaged PSDs – based on the robust psdparse code
Limitations:
* currently converts image layers only
* does not yet convert image masks
Binaries (OS X Intel/PPC, Win32) and source code available via: http://telegraphics.com.au/sw/#psd2xcf
