Oh, yes, it was! :-) There used to be a command in /usr/bin named |
| 30 |
imagemagick and if you launched it, it brought up an interface with |
| 31 |
menus/buttons that you could click on. Granted, I haven't used it in |
| 32 |
quite a while. However, I used to use it all the time to scale graphics |
| 33 |
when I was writing the handbook for krecipes and convert images from |
| 34 |
jpeg to png. |
