Gconvert

/dʒiːˈkɒnvɜːrt/ noun

Definition

Etymology

Modern computing term combining 'g-' (often indicating graphics or generalized) and 'convert' (from Latin 'convertere,' to turn around or transform).

Kelly Says

Gconvert tools are often part of GIMP and other open-source software—they're workhorses that do the unglamorous but essential job of making different file types talk to each other!
