I though Gimp included a plugin to do that. I wrote some code to do it myself once, using imagemagick, probably, I don't recall. But I'm sure I've seen a version with a GUI in lunix, I'm guessing Gimp, possibly with a perl or python dependency...
Bah, just looked through all of Gimp's menus and Synaptic's packages (Ubuntu 10.4, filtered by "tile"), and can't find it. But it's out there, I've seen it :-}

Terry and Christopher,
Thanks for replying. I too went through several plugin lists for Gimp but could not find such. Saw a lot of other very nice plugins but that's for later :-).
But if you both are sure that it's out there, I'll continue to look/ask around in the Gimp-files/community.

John,
It is a pity that the Gimp plugin in no longer available.
But it looks like the program AndreaMosaic fits my needs.

PLease don't use html. Tiling can be done in any of the above programs. But I would probably try Gimp first.
