Select objects with simiar diffuse color texture

Hey guys,

I have an issue here with imported meshes from another software package. For each imported object a new material is created however it references the same bitmap.

As this are hundreds it's quite nasty to reassign them.

So is there a way to do a little script where I can say. "Look for texture file "Enter-A-NAME.extension" in the dissuse color channel and select all objects which do reference this at once?

Search must rely on the bitmap name as materials and bitmap "name" are not equal 😞

I am a graphic nerd but weak in programming. You would save me hours of lifetime.

There's one important information missing, what kind of material is that? The following would work for a standard material: 

filename = @"C:\Path\image.jpg"

select (for obj in objects
	where isKindOf obj.mat standardMaterial and
	isKindOf obj.mat.diffuseMap bitmapTexture and
	obj.mat.diffuseMap.filename == filename collect obj)

Awesome! Yes for standard materials. You saved me a lot of my lifetime ;). Thanks man!
