yeah it's nice for quick converts or to attack multiple screenshots of your desktop into one image but that's it.

how's it better than ffmpeg

Is it good for astro photo stacking?

It's cool but sometimes I have troubles understanding whether it's better to use IM or ffmpeg for some animated image converting task.

too difficult so i just use gimp

ffmpeg is for video, retard. imagemagick is better for images. right tool -> right job.

To point of most command line tools is to take a common repetitive task, like taking a screenshot of multiple monitors and pasting them together, then doing other wanted image manipulation. All in a wrapper.
for example Takes stdout and turns it into a png with white text and black background and then lossy compresses by converting 32-bit RGBA to 8-bit or smaller RGBA-pallette pngs using Floyd-Steinberg dithering.

Every now and then I try to learn how to use imagemagick/graphicsmagick, but always end up just using ffmpeg because it's simpler (or maybe I'm used to it)

...

It's a great tool. I also love NetPBM because of how modular it is.
