If on unix:

width=`identify -ping -format "%w" bg.png`
echo $width

see
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/escape.php

Iam using windows

set width="identify -ping -format "%%w" bg.png"
echo %width%

when i try the above all i get is the entire string as the value of width ... "identify -ping -format "%%w" bg.png"
