TclMagick is a Tcl-extension
for to access the ImageMagick
C-API with simple Tcl-commands.
With TclMagick it's easy to automate image manipulation.
TclMagick knows three types of objects: wand, drawing, pixel. For each
object a Tcl command of the same name is created (analog to Tcl's image command). The subcommands of
those object commands are mainly a one-to-one mapping of the
corresponding ImageMagick's Wand API functions. For a detailed
description of the separate functions see the Wand API documentation.
A list of the supported functions and a complete change log can be
found here: TclMagick.txt, Changes.txt
Note:
ImageMagick's new high-level Wand API is still
under development and will be stable at the end of 2003. Therefore TclMagick
may need an update with every new ImageMagick version.
