Dave - that is my understanding, but I haven’t tested it. I have a ton of scripts and code snippets which would break with IMv7 and my Macs also run older OSes so I am not in a rush to move to IMv7. I use sips often in conjuction with imagemagick, the sips color profile and metadata handling is excellent<div><br></div><div>Sean</div><div><br><br>On Friday, September 25, 2020, Dave Allured - NOAA Affiliate via macports-users <<a href="mailto:macports-users@lists.macports.org">macports-users@lists.macports.org</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div>Sean,</div><div><br></div><div>"possible to invoke the previous parser" -- Do you mean that some of the IMv6 commands can be used with IMv7, simply by prefixing with "magick" and a space?
