gdal_retile will not operate on multiple files

[toupsz]

gdal_retile only uses the first file in a list of files to produce an image pyramid. According to the description, it should take multiple images for the pyramid. Also tried using the --optfile option, but this has the same result.

ex.:

E:\TrueMarble_GeoTIFF>gdal_retile.py -v -r bilinear -levels 3 -ps 2048 2048 -co "TILED=YES" -targetDir pyramid3 TrueMarble.16km.2700x1350.tif TrueMarble.8km.5400x2700.tif
 TrueMarble.4km.10800x5400.tif

I made a simple test and for me it looks like gdal_retile.py is processing all the files from the list. However, what the script is printing on screen is misleading. Like in your case, it looks like only one tif is processed, but if you look at the File Size, it is really processing a mosaic of images "Index for 3 tile(s)"
