Woof Woof! time to compile latest imagemagick:

since I'm a Puppy 3.01 lover, and I use use even frequently Puppy 4.2.1 and Puppy 4.3.1, I compiled for all three puppy versions

*imagemagick 6.6.6-6* for Puppy 3.01
*imagemagick 6.6.6-6* (STATIC BUILD with jpeg2000 support) for Puppy 3.01
*imagemagick 6.6.6-6* (docs and manual)
*imagemagick 6.6.6-6* for Puppy 4.2.1
*imagemagick 6.6.6-7* for Puppy 4.3.1 (with jpeg 2000 support)

composite
conjure
convert
display
identify
import
mogrify
montage
stream

Dear dingo,

• Does ImageMagick also includes an X Window graphical user interface for rendering and manipulating images? (I saw a reference to this on Wikipedia)
• Would you recommend this for PUPs 5.1+?
• Is there a PET on Ibiblio?

Thanks in advance

*display* (type in console display and a GUI will be shown)

is utility from imagemagick with a GUI, but I recommend learning processing images via command-line. Once learned, you will use very fast and easily

animate
compare
composite
conjure
convert
display <----
identify
import
mogrify
montage
stream

I remember that Barry has already done in past an imagemagick package for Lupu (see his blog)

every Puppy series needs to have its proper imagemagick package, since it has differences in system and in libs

I agree with Dingo, that commandline is best, but for some gui is preferred.

I don't know whether this Flimp pet will work with the Imagemagick version above...might be worth a try.

Converseen is a QT4 frontend, to Imagemagick, that provides image conversion & resizing.

I've just spent most of a couple of days trying to get ImageMagick working on Puppy 5.0.2 Lucid. In previous Puppies I had little or no difficulty compiling it, but for some weird reason I'm unable to in this Puppy. The compilation fails with

Imagemagick has been a long-time favorite of mine. I'd love to see a PET for the newest versions of Lucid.
