ImageMagick includes a number of command-line utilities for manipulating images. Most of you are probably accustomed to editing images one at a time with a graphical user interface (GUI) with such programs as Gimp or Photoshop. However, a GUI is not always convenient. Suppose you want to process an image dynamically from a web script or you want to apply the same operations to many images or repeat a specific operation at different times to the same or different image. For these types of operations, the command-line image processing utility is appropriate.
The ImageMagick command-line tools exit with a status of 0 if the command line arguments have a proper syntax and no problems are encountered. Expect a descriptive message and an exit status of 1 if any exception occurs such as improper syntax, a problem reading or writing an image, or any other problem that prevents the command from completing successfully.
Here is a short description for each command-line tool. Click on the program name to get details about the program usage and a list of command-line options that alters how the program behaves. If you are just getting acquainted with ImageMagick, start with the magick program. Be sure to peruse Anthony Thyssen's tutorial on how to use ImageMagick utilities to create, edit, compose, or convert images from the command-line.
Command Line Editor For Mac Windows 10
- convert between image formats as well as resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more.
- use this scripting language interpreter to convert between image formats as well as resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more.
- The at command is used to schedule commands and other programs to run at a specific date.
- Sublime Text is available for Mac, Windows and Linux. One license is all you need to use Sublime Text on every computer you own, no matter what operating system it uses. Sublime Text uses a custom UI toolkit, optimized for speed and beauty, while taking advantage of native functionality on each platform.
Another notable feature of this Mac-only text editor is the ability to enhance the real-time text editing, thanks largely to the well-timed segregation into three columns that consist of the code editor, navigator, and files. Thus, you can comfortably keep an eye on the many sections of the code you are working on; without having to hop from. On a command line, type one or more characters, then press Tab Display a list of possible directory or file name completions See also Create custom function keys in Terminal on Mac Change Profiles Keyboard preferences in Terminal on Mac Apple Support article: Mac keyboard shortcuts. Installing Atom on Windows. Atom is available with Windows installers that can be downloaded from or from the Atom releases page.Use AtomSetup.exe for 32-bit systems and AtomSetup-x64.exe for 64-bit systems. This setup program will install Atom, add the atom and apm commands to your PATH, and create shortcuts on the desktop and in the start menu.
We also support sub-commands for compatibility with ImageMagick version 6:
- magick animate
- animate an image sequence on any X server.
- mathematically and visually annotate the difference between an image and its reconstruction.
- overlap one image over another.
- interpret and execute scripts written in the Magick Scripting Language (MSL).
- convert between image formats as well as resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more.
- display an image or image sequence on any X server.
- describe the format and characteristics of one or more image files.
- save 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.
- resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more. Mogrify overwrites the original image file, whereas, magick writes to a different image file.
- create 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.
- a lightweight tool to stream one or more pixel components of the image or portion of the image to your choice of storage formats. It writes the pixel components as they are read from the input image a row at a time making
stream
desirable when working with large images or when you require raw pixel components.

Your installation may have direct ImageMagick version 6 compatibility links. If so, you can access the tools directly by referring to them by name. For example,
