💫 stream-im6.q16hdri — bestie's guide to streaming pixels 💫

okay so this is the manual page for stream-im6.q16hdri, part of the ImageMagick family (yes, that ImageMagick). it's a whole vibe, it's lightweight, and it's about to become your new fave. let's go 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

stream — a lightweight tool to stream one or more pixel components of the image, or just a portion of the image, straight into whatever storage format you choose. no cap, that's literally the whole job. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

stream-im6.q16hdri [options] input-file output-file

that's it. options, in, out. iconic. 👑

✨ OVERVIEW ✨

so Stream is a lightweight tool to stream one or more pixel components of the image, or a portion of the image, to your choice of storage formats. the way it works is it writes the pixel components as they are read from the input image, a row at a time 🎀 — which makes stream-im6.q16hdri genuinely desirable when you're working with large images, or when you need raw pixel components. it's giving efficiency. it's giving main character energy. ✨

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

🌸 Image Settings 🌸

these are the image-side settings, bestie. the ones that shape the pixels themselves:

  • -authenticate value — decrypt the image using this password 🔐
  • -channel type — apply the option to select image channels
  • -colorspace type — alternate image colorspace
  • -compress type — what kind of pixel compression to use when writing the image
  • -define format:option — define one or more image format options
  • -density geometry — horizontal and vertical density of the image
  • -depth value — image depth
  • -extract geometry — extract an area from the image
  • -identify — identify the format and characteristics of the image
  • -interlace type — type of image interlacing scheme
  • -interpolate method — pixel color interpolation method
  • -limit type value — pixel cache resource limit
  • -map components — one or more pixel components
  • -monitor — monitor progress 👀
  • -quantize colorspace — reduce colors in this colorspace
  • -quiet — suppress all warning messages 🤫
  • -regard-warnings — pay attention to warning messages (yes, the opposite of quiet, we love a duo)
  • -respect-parentheses — settings remain in effect until a parenthesis boundary
  • -sampling-factor geometry — horizontal and vertical sampling factor
  • -seed value — seed a new sequence of pseudo-random numbers 🎲
  • -set attribute value — set an image attribute
  • -size geometry — width and height of the image
  • -storage-type type — pixel storage type
  • -synchronize — synchronize the image to the storage device
  • -taint — declare the image as modified
  • -transparent-color color — transparent color
  • -verbose — print detailed information about the image 🗣️
  • -virtual-pixel method — virtual pixel access method

🎀 Miscellaneous Options 🎀

the extra lil guys. support squad. they matter too:

  • -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

🦋 Format detective work 🦋

by default, the image format of file is determined by its magic number 🔮. want to force a specific image format? you have two moves:

  1. put an image format name and a colon in front of the filename (i.e. ps:image)
  2. or specify the image type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps)

and listen — specify file as - for standard input or output. yes, a single dash. that's the whole thing. periodt. 💅
