[SOLVED] pipe command output to convert ?

[el_supremo]

I have had no indication that '@' needs any form of escaping under windows

The @ works properly and doesn't need to be escaped in this command where I put the text in the file text.txt:

Code: Select all

imconvert -font Arial -pointsize 72 -fill red -background green label:@text.txt -trim cap_t.png

and as I noted in a previous message, the pipe works when it is used with text:- but it won't work with label:- label:@-, caption:- or caption:@-
I had a quick look at the coders but haven't figured out how they handle a pipe and the @- as a "filename".
