💖 mogrify-im6.q16 — bestie edition ✨

okay so this is the manual page for mogrify-im6.q16(1), which lives in the General Commands Manual section. welcome, you're gonna have a great time here 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

mogrify — resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more. Mogrify overwrites the original image file, whereas convert-im6.q16(1) writes to a different image file.

bestie. hear me. it overwrites. the original. file. that's the whole personality of this tool 💀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

mogrify-im6.q16 [options] input-file

🦋 OVERVIEW 🦋

The mogrify-im6.q16 program is a member of the ImageMagick-ims6.q16(1) suite of tools. Use it to resize an image, blur, crop, despeckle, dither, draw on, flip, join, re-sample, and much more. This tool is similar to convert-im6.q16(1) — except the original image file is overwritten with any changes you request.
