Please describe what "normal mapping" does? Or provide an example input and output.

Do you mean using surface normals? If so, then you really need a 3D modeling and rendering system and not a general purpose image processing system. The only script that I have uses surface normals to shade a sphere. It is called sphere and is at the link below. But it is rather slow because it is a script. Also see my bumptext script (which uses IM -shade)


In IM, see -shade at http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/transform/#shade

For GIMP, see http://code.google.com/p/gimp-normalmap/

I don't know if this will help but see
