adding watermak from command line

Hi, I need help how to add watermark to images from command line.

I downloaded watermark.scm and watermark-it.scm, but cold not find how to invoke it in any of the forums ...

I am looking for something like:

gimp -i -b '(watermark "soureImage.jpg" "watermark.jpg" opacity)' -b '(gimp-quit 0)'

or similar combinations. I tried many combinations but always get:

batch command experienced an execution error

It is hard to figure out what the issue is as there is no detailed error message.

Thank you, Zsolt

I will be readinganswers to this with interest as doing things from the command line are tricky.

What I do to watermark images is using ImageMagick as that is much easier to use. http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/annotating/#watermarking has examples with with text and images.
