SYNOPSIS
mogrify [options] input-file
OVERVIEW
The mogrify program is a member of the ImageMagick(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(1) except the original image file
is overwritten with any changes you request.

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.
