Resizing Images with ImageMagick   I a previous article, I
started a series on working with ImageMagick on the command
line, but then I had to stop and deal with the massive migration
project of moving my site from one server to another while
simultaneously dropping it into a completely different back-end
software system—madness. I'm still fixing things and cleaning up
the insane sprawl of it all.  So, my last article detoured into
a discussion of scripts that helped with the migration process.
I'm still working on these fast, short scripts, including one I
wrote this morning:  for entry in blog/*   new=$(echo $entry |
sed 's/blog\///')   echo "Redirect 301 $entry $new"  Can you
track what this loop does? The only tricky part is the
new=statement that removes blog/ from the filename matched in
the for statement; otherwise, it's quite straightforward.
Seriously though, let's return to ImageMagick. There are a ton
of things you can do with the command-line utilities. But first,
let me look at where I left off.
