John,
It didn't occur to me to write that a filename needs to be included with the
display command.
ImageMagic works on the command line and options are to be entered between
'display' and the filename. for example;
-identify identify the format and characteristics of the image
-resize geometry resize the image
and
Image Sequence Operators:
-coalesce merge a sequence of images
-flatten flatten a sequence of images
See the man page for the full range of options. It's an extensive list.
If you've not used ImageMagick's 'convert' tool, examine it's man page, too.
The benefits of using these command line tools is incorporating them in
scripts so you can process multiple images with a single command. Of course,
this works for some while others prefer to use a GUI tool and process images
individually. Both ImageMagick and GIMP have roles to play.
Regards,
Rich
