- Hello NEXTSTEP users!
-
- The file ImageMagick.3.8.6.s.tar.gz contains the sources to ImageMagick release 3.8.6,
- modified to compile on NEXTSTEP systems. I compiled on an 3.3 Intel platform, but it
- should work with all architectures and might with OPENSTEP, too.
-
- I didn't come around to compile FAT, so this is a source-only release. Maybe someone
- makes a 4-FAT binary distribution. You have to make the xlib and jpeg-6a subdirs first
- before making a top level make.
-
- Have fun.

-
- ImageMagick version 3.8.5, is a package for display and interactive
- manipulation of images for the X Window System. It is written in C and
- interfaces to the X library, and therefore does not require any
- proprietary toolkit in order to compile. Although the software is
- copyrighted, it is available for free and can be redistributed without
- fee.

- display
- Display is a machine architecture independent image and
- display program. It can display an image on any
- workstation display running an X server. Display can read
- and write many of the more popular image formats (e.g.
- JPEG, TIFF, PNM, Photo CD, etc.). You can perform these
- functions on the image:
-
- o load an image from a file
- o display the next image
- o display the former image
- o display a sequence of images as a slide show
- o write the image to a file
- o print the image to a Postscript printer
- o delete the image file
- o create a Visual Image Directory
- o select the image to display by its thumbnail rather than name
- o undo last image transformation
- o copy a region of the image
- o paste a region to the image
- o restore the image to its original size
- o refresh the image
- o half the image size
- o double the image size
- o resize the image
- o crop the image
- o cut the image
- o flop image in the horizontal direction
- o flip image in the vertical direction
- o rotate the image 90 degrees clockwise
- o rotate the image 90 degrees counter-clockwise
- o rotate the image
- o shear the image
- o trim the image edges
- o invert the colors of the image
- o vary the color brightness
- o vary the color saturation
- o vary the image hue
- o gamma correct the image
- o sharpen the image contrast
- o dull the image contrast
- o perform histogram equalization on the image
- o perform histogram normalization on the image
- o negate the image colors
- o convert the image to grayscale
- o set the maximum number of unique colors in the image
- o reduce the speckles within an image
- o eliminate peak noise from an image
- o detect edges within the image
- o emboss an image
- o oil paint an image
- o segment the image by color
- o annotate the image with text
- o draw on the image
- o edit an image pixel color
- o edit the image matte information
- o composite an image with another
- o add a border to the image
- o add an image comment
- o apply image processing techniques to a region of interest
- o display information about the image
- o display information about this program
- o display image to background of a window
- o set user preferences
- o discard all images and exit program
- o change the level of magnification
- o display images specified by a World Wide Web (WWW)
- uniform resource locator (URL)
-
- import
- 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. You can use display (see
- display(1)) utility for redisplay, printing, editing,
- formatting, archiving, image processing, etc. of the
- captured image.
-
- The target window can be specified by id, name, or may be
- selected by clicking the mouse in the desired window. If
- you press a button and then drag, a rectangle will form
- which expands and contracts as the mouse moves. To save
- the portion of the screen defined by the rectangle, just
- release the button. The keyboard bell is rung once at the
- beginning of the screen capture and twice when it
- completes.
-
- animate
- Animate displays a sequence of images on any workstation
- display running an X server. Animate first determines the
- hardware capabilities of the workstation. If the number of
- unique colors in an image is less than or equal to the
- number the workstation can support, the image is displayed
- in an X window. Otherwise the number of colors in the
- image is first reduced to match the color resolution of the
- workstation before it is displayed.
-
- This means that a continuous-tone 24 bits/pixel image can
- display on a 8 bit pseudo-color device or monochrome
- device. In most instances the reduced color image closely
- resembles the original. Alternatively, a monochrome or
- pseudo-color image sequence can display on a
- continuous-tone 24 bits/pixels device.
-
- montage
- 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.
-
- convert
- Convert converts an input file using one image format to an
- output file with a differing image format. By default, the
- image format is determined by it's magic number. To specify
- a particular image format, precede the filename with an
- image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify
- the image type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps).
- Specify file as - for standard input or output. If file
- has the extension .Z, the file is decoded with uncompress.
-
- mogrify
- 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.
-
- 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 image.
-
- combine
- Combine combines images to create new images.
-
- xtp 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.
