✨ GraphicsMagick-Config(1) ✨

Bestie, this is the page for GraphicsMagick-config 🎀 It's a General Commands Manual command, so you run it straight from your terminal 💅

✨ NAME ✨

GraphicsMagick-config, get info about the installed version of GraphicsMagick 🧚

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

GraphicsMagick-config [--cflags] [--cppflags] [--exec-prefix]
[--ldflags] [--libs] [--prefix] [--version]

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so GraphicsMagick-config is literally the helper that prints the compiler and linker flags you need to compile and link programs that use the GraphicsMagick Application Programmer Interface 💖 It's giving main character energy for your build 🔥

✨ EXAMPLES ✨

First, to print the version of the GraphicsMagick distribution you have installed, just do:

GraphicsMagick-config --version

And to compile a program that calls the GraphicsMagick Application Programmer Interface, do this 🫶

cc `GraphicsMagick-config --cflags --cppflags --ldflags --libs` program.c

✨ OPTIONS ✨

  • --cflags — prints the compiler flags that were used to compile libMagick 🌸
  • --cppflags — prints the preprocessor flags your program needs so it can find the GraphicsMagick C include files and defines. This keeps the GraphicsMagick data structures matching between your program and the installed libraries, so nothing gets weird 🦋
  • --exec-prefix — prints the directory where target-specific binaries and executables get installed 🧚
  • --ldflags — prints the linker flags needed to link with the GraphicsMagick library ⭐
  • --libs — prints the linker flags needed to link a program with libGraphicsMagick 💜
  • --version — prints the GraphicsMagick distribution version to standard output ✨
Heads up: --prefix is in the SYNOPSIS, but this page doesn't have its own entry for it, so I'm not gonna guess what it does 🙈
