For those who would appreciate the text of that Help, yertiz, but sadly it seems this editor has destroyed the alignment: BUTTONS COMMAND_WIDGET KEYBOARD_ACCELERATORS BUTTONS The effects of each button press is described below, Three buttons are required, If you have a two button mouse, button 1 and ...

In display, <F1> shows the Help info; under Keyboard Accelerators it declares that C will crop a region, but it does not, perhaps because one must first select a region to be cropped. Instead one must first press c and drag to select the crop region, then press Enter to do the actual crop. My real ...

Density and physical dimensions are generally only important for printing, but not for display or further processing of the images. Note that vector files such as SVG, EPS, PDF, PS etc will be rasterized and so will need to have some density set before reading the vector file so that ImageMagick ...

Yes. Personally, for my image processing, I usually deal in pixels, not inches or centimetres or whatever. The density and physical dimensions are rarely of any importance. Many thanks. I'm sorry if I've been overly persistent on this point, but my end objective is ocr to text with tesseract, which ...

Would someone kindly explain to me the purpose of -resample. As I understand the option it is a simultaneous resizing and reset of the density of the image, ... Correct. ...so that the resampled image will occupy the same physical dimensions when presented in a different viewing device. Yes ...

Would someone kindly explain to me the purpose of -resample. As I understand the option it is a simultaneous resizing and reset of the density of the image, so that the resampled image will occupy the same physical dimensions when presented in a different viewing device. Which begs the question, why ...

Thank you for the info, eval isn't a problem, this is only for my own personal computer, no one else has access to it.

If I do display "/tmp/Agoseris7-8.jpg" "/tmp/Albino5-2.jpg" "/tmp/Albino5-4.jpg" "/tmp/Arnica7-7-2.jpg" all is well. But if I do x='"/tmp/Agoseris7-8.jpg" "/tmp/Albino5-2.jpg" "/tmp/Albino5-4.jpg" "/tmp/Arnica7-7-2.jpg"' display $x it fails, as does also display "$x" display <<< $x display <<< "$x ...
