| Hi all,
| Is it possible to create an image from outside IM and then pipe to
| convert?
| Something like this, assuming "program" creates a file named foo.png:
| 
| program ; convert foo.png foo.gif
| 
| To be replaced by :
| program | convert foo.gif
| 
| This solution doesn't work, but is there a way?
| 
YES

   program | convert - foo.gif

The data input can be any reconisable image format not just PNG
if Im can not determine it you can tell IM what type of image it is...

   program | convert png:- foo.gif
