[magick-users] Shell or Perl script to detect object on image

[Fred Weinhaus]

In command line you can get it simply from the txt: image format.

see http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/files/#txt

for example using the IM internal image rose:

convert rose: txt:-

or using -fx and debug

convert rose: -fx "debug(u)" null:

note: x and y coords are reversed in the latter listing.
