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....
