The conjure program processes a Magick Scripting Language (MSL) script. The Magick scripting language (MSL) will primarily benefit those that want to accomplish custom image processing tasks but do not wish to program, or those that do not have access to a Perl interpreter or a compiler. See Command Line Processing for advice on how to structure your conjure command or see below for example usages of the command.

Example Usage

We list a few examples of the conjure command here to illustrate its usefulness and ease of use. To get started, here is simple conjure command:

  conjure -dimensions 400x400 incantation.msl

Where incantation.msl is our MSL script:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <image size="400x400" \>
    <read filename="image.gif" />
    <get width="base-width" height="base-height" />
    <resize geometry="%[dimensions]" />
    <get width="width" height="height" />
    <print output="Image sized from %[base-width]x%[base-height] to %[width]x%[height].\n" />
    <write filename="image.png" />
  </image>

You can find additional examples of using conjure in Graphics from the Command Line. Further discussion is available in More Graphics from the Command Line and Examples of ImageMagick Usage.
