re command line tools
The imagemagick tools are super. Still, be carefull calling them "command
line tools" without testing first. We've run into permissions issues with
xserver even with a console, command line prompt. That was problematic
with scripted, batch input. This was not just for displaying directories,
though, we were generating images.
