I tried to install ImageMagick using the command:

yum install ImageMagick

Then, I ran this command:

I got this message:

bash: imgout: command not found

I tried the following command:

yum whatprovides '*/imgout'

I got:

My question is: how can I install imgout?

I think that imgout might just be an alias for some variant of this 

convert -font Symbola -pointsize 64 -fill black -background white caption:"`tee`" caption.png

Note that you need the Symbola font. Which was corrupted in my Kubuntu (even after reinstall), causing some problems testing.

The script you give produces 3 symbols, they are then rendered in that font and output to an image file that I've called caption.png. On testing this script makes an image of 3 dice with 4, 3, 2 stacked vertically.

For completeness the only reference online to an actual program imgout were uses in Tweets (eg by @eban) and a plugin for graphicsmagick. There is no reference to imgout on imagemagick.org website other than as a placeholder for an output image file.

  • Ok, thanks! Just I asked to japanese what is imgout, they tell is tool from ImageMagick. – 0-Level UNIX Monk Sep 23 '18 at 12:45

This tool is not part of the ImageMagick upstream. (Source: ImageMagick site.) That's why it's not part of this package.

  • I don't see "imgout" (nor "imageout") anywhere on that page? Can you expand further on your answer? – pbhj Sep 23 '18 at 20:06

    I'm not sure what more there is to say — the looked-for command is not part of imagemagick, which is the explanation for why the command is not part of imagemagick in Fedora. – mattdm Sep 23 '18 at 20:32
  • Your addition of "not" clarified your answer. Thank you. – pbhj Sep 23 '18 at 20:41

    Well, it said "not" before too. I just made it bold. :) – mattdm Sep 23 '18 at 20:50

You should be able what's inside the installed packages (and thus, if the executable is included and at which path it is) by using rpm -ql $PACKAGE_NAME.

If you want to know which package contains a certain file then you can do as shown here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12670517/how-to-find-packages-containing-a-specific-file

  • Not helps. A tool imgout not found. – 0-Level UNIX Monk Sep 22 '18 at 10:53

    In that case that means that an executable named imgout does not exist in a fedora package. Which source tells you that an executable named imgout exists? – Tomáš Pospíšek Sep 22 '18 at 12:37
