Overview
ImageMagick is a set of command-line programs for handling images. It is free, open-source software included with most Linux distros; it is also available for Microsoft Windows.

ImageMagick consists of the following programs:
 * convert converts between image formats as well as applying the following effects: resize, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more.
 * identify describes the format and characteristics of one or more image files
 * mogrify is essentially the same as convert except that it overwrites the original file (convert writes its output to a new file).
 * composite overlaps one image over another.
 * montage creates a composite image by combining several separate images. The images are tiled on the composite image, optionally adorned with a border, frame, image name, and more.
 * compare mathematically and visually annotates the difference between an image and its reconstruction
 * display displays an image or image sequence on any X server.
 * animate animates an image sequence on any X server.
 * import saves 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.
 * conjure interprets and executes scripts written in the Magick Scripting Language (MSL).
