Book review: ImageMagick Tricks (Linux.com)

[Posted October 9, 2006 by ris]

Linux.com reviews the book ImageMagick Tricks from Packt Publishing. "Command-line utilities can be powerful, but it takes some doing to make a typical desktop user work in the shell. The image manipulation program ImageMagick is one command-line program that gives users a good reason to use the CLI. Now Packt Publishing has released ImageMagick Tricks, a book that covers ImageMagick from the ground up. If you've never used ImageMagick before, this book is a good starting place."

CLI image-manipulation in general

So we have two toolkits that I know of that provide sets of Shell commands to do various image manipulations--ImageMagick and NetPBM. Has anybody done a comparative review of these (and any others there might be) as to their pros and cons?

(By the way, I wanted to put an em-dash "—" in place of the double hyphens above, but your system won't let me.)
