💅 display-im6.q16 — the manual page, but make it cute

okay so bestie, welcome to display-im6.q16(1), from the General Commands Manual section. it's a whole vibe. let's get into it. 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

display — displays an image or image sequence on any X server. that's it, that's the job. iconic behavior honestly. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

display-im6.q16 [options] input-file

🫶 OVERVIEW 🫶

so display-im6.q16 is a member of the ImageMagick-ims6.q16(1) suite of tools, and you use it to display an image or image sequence on any X server. any of them. it's flexible like that. ✨

🦋 Image Sequence Operators 🦋

⭐ Miscellaneous Options ⭐

  • -debug events — display copious debugging information.
  • -help — print program options.
  • -log format — format of debugging information.
  • -list type — print a list of supported option arguments.
  • -version — print version information.

and in addition to all of those listed above, you can also specify these standard X resources as command line options: -background, -bordercolor, -borderwidth, -font, -foreground, -iconGeometry, -iconic, -mattecolor, -name, -shared-memory, -usePixmap, or -title. yes bestie, all of them. no cap. ✨

by default, the image format of file is determined by its magic number. if you wanna specify a particular image format, precede the filename with an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify the image type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps). and you can specify file as - for standard input or output. very demure, very mindful. 🎀

🖱️ Buttons 🖱️

  1. press to map or unmap the Command widget
  2. press and drag to magnify a region of an image
  3. press to load an image from a visual image directory

three buttons. three moods. slay. 💅

🚨 NOTE 🚨

the display program defaults to the X screen resolution. so if you wanna display vector formats at their intended size, you gotta override that default resolution:

display -density 72 drawing.svg
fr fr don't forget this one, or your .svg is gonna look a whole different size than you meant. 😭
