Here is a list of the ImageMagik commands and what they do... Perhaps some food for thought: 1.) Montage: creates a composite image by combining several separate images. The images are tiled on the composite image with the name of the image optionally appearing just below the individual tile. 2.) Convert: converts an input file using one image format to an output file with a differing image format. Great for file format manipulation 3.) Mogrify: transforms an image or a sequence of images. These transforms include image scaling, image rotation, color reduction, and others. The transmogrified image overwrites the original image 4.) Identify: describes the format and characteristics of one or more image files. It will also report if an image is incomplete or corrupt. The information displayed includes the scene number, the file name, the width and height of the image, whether the image is colormapped or not, the number of colors in the image, the number of bytes in the image, the format of the image (JPEG, PNM, etc.), and finally the number of seconds it took to read and process the imag 5.) Combine: combines images to create new images. You can get some pretty artistic and sometimes weird results with this command... 6.) Xtp: is a utility for retrieving, listing, or printing files from a remote network site, or sending files to a remote network site. Xtp performs most of the same functions as the ftp program, but does not require any interactive commands. You simply specify the file transfer task on the command line and xtp performs the task automatically. This utility should totally fascinate some of you network centric people out there... 7.) Display: is a machine architecture independent image processing and display program. It can display an image on any workstation display running an X server. The image can be displayed as background image of any window. Display first determines the hardware capabilities of your workstation. 8.) Import: reads an image from any visible window on an X server and outputs it as an image file. You can capture a single window, the entire screen, or any rectangular portion of the screen. 9.) Animate: Animate displays a sequence of images on any workstation display running an X server. Animate first determines the hardware capabilities of the workstation. This command is hard-core from a graphics programmers stand point.... Best Marvin Dickens |
