π imageinfo(1) π
okay bestie, welcome to imageinfo from the General Commands Manual β yes, section 1, she's a command, she's iconic, she's here to tell you everything about your images π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
imageinfo β display selected image information π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
imageinfo [--help] [--version] [--format] [--fmtdscr] [--size] [--depth]
[--geom] [--width] [--height] [--iccname] [--iccfile=file] [--iccmd5]
[--md5hash] [--sha256hash] imagefile
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
So here's the vibe: imageinfo computes and displays selected image attributes. That's it, that's the whole girlboss job description.
She's lowkey giving the same energy as ImageMagick's identify utility, but she comes with a few extra attributes β like, hello, details of embedded ICC profiles?? yes ma'am π
β and she lets you pick which attributes to compute right there on the command line.
Why does that matter, you ask? Because it means no unnecessary computation (girl is not doing work she wasn't asked to do, we stan an efficient queen β¨) and it makes parsing the results way easier when this utility gets called from a script. main character energy for your shell scripts fr fr π
