Many of you are familiar with the usual image processing software, like Gimp, where the mouse is used to interact with the software. This is usually a convenient and fairly intuitive way to use a piece of software because you can work on an image, manipulate the mouse and see the effects immediately. While this works well when you are working on a single image, what happens when you have hundreds of images to work on? This is increasingly becoming more common due to the use of more digital cameras. It is a chore, for example, to put a timestamp on, convert the format, or resize all the images one at a time. Ah, this is where ImageMagick comes into play.
Author states: " The first thing you need to know is that you cannot use your mouse in Magick because there is no graphical user interface." and " The only major drawback is the need to learn the command options.".
Wrong. Open a Konsole as a user and type "display". Or left click on an image file and select Open With > ImageMagick. Now you can use your mouse to point & click as much as you want. Sure, there are a lot of powerful command line features available, but you can do a lot with the mouse.
