Image Sequence
Operators:

Image Stack
Operators:
-clone indexes clone an image
-delete indexes delete the image from the image
sequence
-duplicate count,indexes
duplicate an image one or more times

sequence

sequence
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
In addition to
those listed above, you can specify these standard X
resources as command line options: -background,
-bordercolor, -borderwidth, -font,
-mattecolor, or -title.
By default, the
image format of ’file’ is determined by its
magic number. To 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). Specify ’file’ as
’-’ for standard input or output.

overview
The montage program is a member of the ImageMagick(1)
suite of tools. Use it to create a composite image by combining
several separate images. The images are tiled on the composite
image optionally adorned with a border, frame, image name, and
more.
