1. Usage
-----
gmic [command1 [arg1_1,arg1_2,..]] .. [commandN
[argN_1,argN_2,..]]
gmic is the open-source interpreter of the G'MIC language, a
script-based programming language
dedicated to the design of possibly complex image processing pipelines and
operators.
It can be used to convert, manipulate, filter and visualize image datasets
made of one or several
1D/2D or 3D multi-spectral images.
This reference documentation describes all the technical aspects of the
G'MIC framework, in its
current version 2.9.4.

2. Overall Context
---------------
* At any time, G'MIC manages one list of numbered (and optionally
named) pixel-based images,
entirely stored in computer memory (uncompressed).
* The first image of the list has index '0' and is denoted by
'[0]'. The second image of the list
is denoted by '[1]', the third by '[2]' and so on.
* Negative indices are treated in a periodic way: '[-1]' refers to the
last image of the list,
'[-2]' to the penultimate one, etc. Thus, if the list has 4 images,
'[1]' and '[-3]' both designate
the second image of the list.
* A named image may be also indicated by '[name]', if 'name'
uses the character set [a-zA-Z0-9_]
and does not start with a number. Image names can be set or reassigned at any
moment during the
processing pipeline (see command name for this purpose).
* G'MIC defines a set of various commands and substitution mechanisms
to allow the design of
complex pipelines and operators managing this list of images, in a very
flexible way: You can
insert or remove images in the list, rearrange image order, process images
(individually or
grouped), merge image data together, display and output image files, etc.
* Such a pipeline can define a new custom G'MIC command (stored in a
user command file), and
re-used afterwards as a regular command, in a larger pipeline if
necessary.
3. Image Definition and Terminology
--------------------------------
* In G'MIC, each image is modeled as a 1D, 2D, 3D or 4D array of
scalar values, uniformly
discretized on a rectangular/parallelepipedic domain.
* The four dimensions of this array are respectively denoted by:
- width, the number of image columns (size along the x-axis).
- height, the number of image rows (size along the y-axis).
- depth, the number of image slices (size along the z-axis).
The depth is equal to '1' for
usual color or grayscale 2D images.
- spectrum, the number of image channels (size along the
c-axis). The spectrum is
respectively equal to '3' and '4' for usual RGB and
RGBA color images.
* There are no hard limitations on the size of the image along each
dimension. For instance, the
number of image slices or channels can be of arbitrary size within the limits
of the available
memory.
* The width, height and depth of an image are considered
as spatial dimensions, while the
spectrum has a multi-spectral meaning. Thus, a 4D image in
G'MIC should be most often regarded as
a 3D dataset of multi-spectral voxels. Most of the G'MIC commands will
stick with this idea (e.g.
command blur blurs images only along the spatial xyz-axes).
* G'MIC stores all the image data as buffers of float values
(32 bits, value range
'[-3.4E38,+3.4E38]'. It performs all its image processing operations
with floating point numbers.
Each image pixel takes then 32bits/channel (except if double-precision
buffers have been enabled
during the compilation of the software, in which case 64bits/channel can be
the default).
* Considering float-valued pixels ensure to keep the numerical
precision when executing image
processing pipelines. For image input/output operations, you may want to
prescribe the image
datatype to be different than float (like bool, char,
int, etc.). This is possible by
specifying it as a file option when using I/O commands. (see section
Input/Output Properties to
learn more about file options).
4. Items of a Processing Pipeline
------------------------------
* In G'MIC, an image processing pipeline is described as a sequence of
items separated by the space
character. Such items are interpreted and executed from the left to the
right. For instance, the
expression:
filename.jpg blur 3,0 sharpen 10 resize 200%,200% output
file_out.jpg
defines a valid pipeline composed of nine G'MIC items.
* Each G'MIC item is a string that is either a command, a list of
command arguments, a
filename or a special input string.
* Escape characters '\fR' and double quotes '"' can be
used to define items containing spaces or
other special characters. For instance, the two strings
single item and "single item" both
define the same single item, with a space in it.
5. Input Data Items
----------------
* If a specified G'MIC item appears to be an existing filename, the
corresponding image data are
loaded and inserted at the end of the image list (which is equivalent to the
use of `input
filename`).
* Special filenames - and -.ext stand for the standard
input/output streams, optionally forced
to be in a specific 'ext' file format (e.g. -.jpg or
-.png).
* The following special input strings may be used as G'MIC items to
create and insert new images
with prescribed values, at the end of the image list:
- '[selection]' or '[selection]xN': Insert 1 or N copies of
already existing images. 'selection'
may represent one or several images (see section Command Items and
Selections to learn more
about selections).
- 'width[%],_height[%],_depth[%],_spectrum[%],_values[xN]': Insert one
or N images with specified
size and values (adding '%' to a dimension means "percentage of
the size along the same axis",
taken from the last image '[-1]'). Any specified dimension can be also
written as '[image]', and is
then set to the size (along the same axis) of the existing specified image
'[image]'. 'values' can
be either a sequence of numbers separated by commas ',', or a
mathematical expression, as e.g. in
input item '256,256,1,3,[x,y,128]' which creates a 256x256 RGB
color image with a spatial shading
on the red and green channels. (see section Mathematical Expressions
to learn more about
mathematical expressions).
- '(v1,v2,..)[xN]': Insert one or N new images from specified
prescribed values. Value
separator inside parentheses can be ',' (column separator), ';'
(row separator), '/' (slice
separator) or '^' (channel separator). For instance, expression
'(1,2,3;4,5,6;7,8,9)' creates a 3x3
matrix (scalar image), with values running from 1 to 9.
- '('string'[:delimiter])[xN]': Insert one or N new images from
specified string, by filling the
images with the character codes composing the string. When specified,
'delimiter' tells about the
main orientation of the image. Delimiter can be 'x' (eq. to ','
which is the default), 'y' (eq. to
';'), 'z' (eq. to '/') or 'c' (eq. to
'^'). When specified delimiter is ',', ';', '/'
or '^', the
expression is actually equivalent to '({'string'[:delimiter]})[xN]'
(see section ''Substitution
Rules'' for more information on the syntax).
- '0[xN]': Insert one or N new empty images, containing no
pixel data. Empty images are used
only in rare occasions.
* Input item 'name=value' declares a new variable 'name', or
assign a new string value to an
existing variable. Variable names must use the character set
[a-zA-Z0-9_] and cannot start with a
number.
* A variable definition is always local to the current command except when it
starts by the
underscore character '_'. In that case, it becomes also accessible by
any command invoked outside
the current command scope (global variable).
* If a variable name starts with two underscores __, the global
variable is also shared among
different threads and can be read/set by commands running in parallel (see
command parallel for
this purpose). Otherwise, it remains local to the thread that defined it.
* Numerical variables can be updated with the use of these special operators:
'+=' (addition), '-='
(subtraction), '*=' (multiplication), '/=' (division),
'%=' (modulo), '&=' (bitwise and), '|='
(bitwise or), '^=' (power), '<<=' and '>>'
(bitwise left and right shifts). For instance, 'foo=1'
'foo+=3'.
* Input item 'name.=string' concatenates specified string to
the end of variable 'name'.
* Multiple variable assignments and updates are allowed, with expressions:
'name1,name2,...,nameN=value' or
'name1,name2,...,nameN=value1,value2,...,valueN' where assignment
operator '=' can be replaced by one of the allowed operators (e.g.
'+=').
* Variables usually store numbers or strings. Use command 'store' to
assign variables from image
data (and syntax input $variable to bring them back on the image list
afterwards).
6. Command Items and Selections
----------------------------
* A G'MIC item that is not a filename nor a special input string
designates a 'command' most of the
time. Generally, commands perform image processing operations on one or
several available images of
the list.
* Reccurent commands have two equivalent names ('regular' and
'short'). For instance, command names
'resize' and 'r' refer to the same image resizing action.
* A G'MIC command may have mandatory or optional arguments. Command
arguments must be specified
in the next item on the command line. Commas ',' are used to separate
multiple arguments of a
single command, when required.
* The execution of a G'MIC command may be restricted only to a subset
of the image list, by
appending '[selection]' to the command name. Examples of valid
syntaxes for 'selection' are:
- 'command[-2]': Apply command only on the penultimate image
'[-2]' of the list.
- 'command[0,1,3]': Apply command only on images '[0]',
'[1]' and '[3]'.
- 'command[3-6]': Apply command only on images '[3]' to
'[6]' (i.e, '[3]', '[4]', '[5]' and
'[6]').
- 'command[50%-100%]': Apply command only on the second half of the
image list.
- 'command[0,-4--1]': Apply command only on the first image and the
last four images.
- 'command[0-9:3]': Apply command only on images '[0]' to
'[9]', with a step of 3 (i.e. on images
'[0]', '[3]', '[6]' and '[9]').
- 'command[0-9:25%]': Apply command only on images '[0]' to
'[9]', with a step of 25% (i.e. on
images '[0]', '[3]', '[6]' and '[9]').
- 'command[0--1:2]': Apply command only on images of the list with
even indices.
- 'command[0,2-4,50%--1]': Apply command on images '[0]',
'[2]', '[3]', '[4]' and on the second
half of the image list.
- 'command[^0,1]': Apply command on all images except the first two.
- 'command[name1,name2]': Apply command on named images 'name1'
and 'name2'.
* Indices in selections are always sorted in increasing order, and duplicate
indices are discarded.
For instance, selections '[3-1,1-3]' and '[1,1,1,3,2]' are both
equivalent to '[1-3]'. If you want
to repeat a single command multiple times on an image, use a
'repeat..done' loop instead. Inverting
the order of images for a command is achieved by explicitly inverting the
order of the images in
the list, with command 'reverse[selection]'.
* Command selections '[-1]', '[-2]' and '[-3]' are so
often used they have their own shortcuts,
respectively '.', '..' and '...'. For instance, command
'blur..' is equivalent to 'blur[-2]'. These
shortcuts work also when specifying command arguments.
* G'MIC commands invoked without '[selection]' are applied on
all images of the list, i.e. the
default selection is '[0--1]' (except for command 'input' whose
default selection is '[-1]'').
* Prepending a single hyphen '-' to a G'MIC command is allowed.
This may be useful to recognize
command items more easily in a one-liner pipeline (typically invoked from a
shell).
* A G'MIC command prepended with a plus sign '+' does not act
in-place but inserts its result
as one or several new images at the end of the image list.
* There are two different types of commands that can be run by the
G'MIC interpreter:
- Built-in commands are the hard-coded functionalities in the
interpreter core. They are thus
compiled as binary code and run fast, most of the time. Omitting an argument
when invoking a
built-in command is not permitted, except if all following arguments are also
omitted. For
instance, invoking 'plasma 10,,5' is invalid but 'plasma 10' is
correct.
- Custom commands, are defined as G'MIC pipelines of built-in
or other custom commands. They
are parsed by the G'MIC interpreter, and thus run a bit slower than
built-in commands. Omitting
arguments when invoking a custom command is permitted. For instance,
expressions flower ,,,100,,2
or flower , are correct.
* Most of the existing commands in G'MIC are actually defined as
custom commands.
* A user can easily add its own custom commands to the G'MIC
interpreter (see section ''Adding
Custom Commands'' for more details). New built-in commands cannot be added
(unless you modify the
G'MIC interpreter source code and recompile it).
7. Input/Output Properties
-----------------------
* G'MIC is able to read/write most of the classical image file
formats, including:
- 2D grayscale/color files: .png, .jpeg, .gif,
.pnm, .tif, .bmp, ...
- 3D volumetric files: .dcm, .hdr, .nii, .pan,
.inr, .pnk, ...
- Video files: .mpeg, .avi, .mov, .ogg,
.flv, ...
- Generic text or binary data files: .gmz, .cimg,
.cimgz, .dlm, .asc, .pfm, .raw,
.txt, .h.
- 3D object files: .off
* When dealing with color images, G'MIC generally reads, writes and
displays data using the usual
sRGB color space.
* G'MIC is able to manage 3D objects that may be read from files or
generated by G'MIC
commands. A 3D object is stored as a one-column scalar image containing the
object data, in the
following order: { magic_number; sizes; vertices; primitives;
colors; opacities }. These 3D
representations can be then processed as regular images (see command
split3d for accessing each
of these 3D object data separately).
* Be aware that usual file formats may be sometimes not adapted to store all
the available image
data, since G'MIC uses float-valued image buffers. For instance,
saving an image that was initially
loaded as a 16bits/channel image, as a .jpg file will result in a loss
of information. Use the
G'MIC-specific file extension .gmz to ensure that all data
precision is preserved when saving
images.
* Sometimes, file options may/must be set for file formats:
- Video files: Only sub-frames of an image sequence may be loaded,
using the input expression
'filename.ext,[first_frame[,last_frame[,step]]]'. Set
'last_frame==-1' to tell it must be the last
frame of the video. Set 'step' to '0' to force an opened video
file to be opened/closed. Output
framerate and codec can be also set by using the output expression
'filename.avi,_fps,_codec,_keep_open' where 'keep_open' can be
{ 0 | 1 }. 'codec' is a 4-char
string (see http://www.fourcc.org/codecs.php ) or '0' for the
default codec. 'keep_open' tells if
the output video file must be kept open for appending new frames afterwards.
- .cimg[z] files: Only crops and sub-images of .cimg files can
be loaded, using the input
expressions 'filename.cimg,N0,N1', 'filename.cimg,N0,N1,x0,x1',
'filename.cimg,N0,N1,x0,y0,x1,y1',
'filename.cimg,N0,N1,x0,y0,z0,x1,y1,z1' or
'filename.cimg,N0,N1,x0,y0,z0,c0,x1,y1,z1,c1'.
Specifying '-1' for one coordinates stands for the maximum possible
value. Output expression
'filename.cimg[z][,datatype]' can be used to force the output pixel
type. 'datatype' can be { auto
| uchar | char | ushort | short | uint | int | uint64 | int64 | float |
double }.
- .raw binary files: Image dimensions and input pixel type may
be specified when loading
.raw files with input expression
'filename.raw[,datatype][,width][,height[,depth[,dim[,offset]]]]]
'. If no dimensions are specified, the resulting image is a one-column vector
with maximum possible
height. Pixel type can also be specified with the output expression
'filename.raw[,datatype]'.
'datatype' can be the same as for .cimg[z] files.
- .yuv files: Image dimensions must be specified when loading,
and only sub-frames of an
image sequence may be loaded, using the input expression
'filename.yuv,width,height[,chroma_subsampl
ing[,first_frame[,last_frame[,step]]]'. 'chroma_subsampling' can be
{ 420 | 422 | 444 }. When
saving, chroma subsampling mode can be specified with output expression
'filename.yuv[,chroma_subsampling]'.
- .tiff files: Only sub-images of multi-pages tiff files can be
loaded, using the input
expression 'filename.tif,_first_frame,_last_frame,_step'. Output
expression
'filename.tiff,_datatype,_compression,_force_multipage,_use_bigtiff'
can be used to specify the
output pixel type, as well as the compression method. 'datatype' can
be the same as for .cimg[z]
files. 'compression' can be { none (default) | lzw | jpeg
}. 'force_multipage' can be { 0=no
(default) | 1=yes }. 'use_bigtiff' can be { 0=no | 1=yes
(default) }.
- .gif files: Animated gif files can be saved, using the input
expression
'filename.gif,fps>0,nb_loops'. Specify 'nb_loops=0' to get
an infinite number of animation loops
(this is the default behavior).
- .jpeg files: The output quality may be specified (in %),
using the output expression
'filename.jpg,30' (here, to get a 30% quality output). '100' is
the default.
- .mnc files: The output header can set from another file,
using the output expression
'filename.mnc,header_template.mnc'.
- .pan, .cpp, .hpp, .c and .h
files: The output datatype can be selected with
output expression 'filename[,datatype]'. 'datatype' can be the
same as for .cimg[z] files.
- .gmic files: These filenames are assumed to be G'MIC
custom commands files. Loading such
a file will add the commands it defines to the interpreter. Debug information
can be
enabled/disabled by the input expression
'filename.gmic[,add_debug_info' where 'debug_info' can be
{ 0=false | 1=true }.
- Inserting 'ext:' on the beginning of a filename (e.g.
'jpg:filename') forces G'MIC to
read/write the file as it would have been done if it had the specified
extension .ext.
* Some input/output formats and options may not be supported, depending on
the configuration flags
that have been set during the build of the G'MIC software.
8. Substitution Rules
------------------
* G'MIC items containing '$' or '{}' are substituted
before being interpreted. Use these
substituting expressions to access various data from the interpreter
environment.
* '$name' and '${name}' are both substituted by the value of
the specified named variable (set
previously by the item 'name=value'). If this variable has not been
already set, the expression is
substituted by the highest positive index of the named image '[name]'.
If no image has this name,
the expression is substituted by the value of the OS environment variable
with same name (it may be
thus an empty string if it is not defined).
* The following reserved variables are predefined by the G'MIC
interpreter:
- '$!': The current number of images in the list.
- '$>' and '$<': The increasing/decreasing index of the
latest (currently running)
'repeat...done' loop. '$>' goes from 0 (first loop
iteration) to nb_iterations - 1 (last
iteration). '$<' does the opposite.
- '$/': The current call stack. Stack items are separated by slashes
'/'.
- '$|': The current value (expressed in seconds) of a millisecond
precision timer.
- '$^': The current verbosity level.
- '$_cpus': The number of computation cores available on your machine.
- '$_pid': The current process identifier, as an integer.
- '$_prerelease': For pre-releases, the date of the pre-release as
yymmdd. For stable releases,
this variable is set to 0.
- '$_version': A 3-digits number telling about the current version of
the G'MIC interpreter
(e.g. '294').
- '$_host': A string telling about the host running the G'MIC
interpreter (e.g. cli or gimp).
- '$_vt100': Set to 1 if colored text output is allowed on the
console. Otherwise, set to 0.
- '$_path_rc': The path to the G'MIC folder used to store
configuration files (its value is
OS-dependent).
- '$_path_user': The path to the G'MIC user file .gmic
or user.gmic (its value is
OS-dependent).
- '$_path_commands': A list of all imported command files (stored as a
list-valued variable).
* '$$name' and '$${name}' are both substituted by the
G'MIC script code of the specified named
custom command, or by an empty string if no custom command with
specified name exists.
* '${"-pipeline"}' is substituted by the status value after
the execution of the specified
G'MIC pipeline (see command status). Expression '${}'
thus stands for the current status value.
* '{``string}' (starting with two backquotes) is substituted by a
double-quoted version of the
specified string.
* '{/string}' is substituted by the escaped version of the specified
string.
* '{'string'[:delimiter]}' (between single quotes) is substituted by
the sequence of character
codes that composes the specified string, separated by specified delimiter.
Possible delimiters are
',' (default), ';', '/', '^' or ' '. For
instance, item '{'foo'}' is substituted by '102,111,111'
and '{'foo':;}' by '102;111;111'.
* '{image,feature[:delimiter]}' is substituted by a specific feature
of the image '[image]'.
'image' can be either an image number or an image name. It can be also
eluded, in which case, the
last image '[-1]' of the list is considered for the requested feature.
Specified 'feature' can be
one of:
- 'b': The image basename (i.e. filename without the folder path nor
extension).
- 'f': The image folder name.
- 'n': The image name or filename (if the image has been read from a
file).
- 't': The text string from the image values regarded as character
codes.
- 'x': The image extension (i.e the characters after the last .
in the image name).
- '^': The sequence of all image values, separated by commas ,.
- '@subset': The sequence of image values corresponding to the
specified subset, and separated by
commas ,.
- Any other 'feature' is considered as a mathematical expression
associated to the image
'[image]' and is substituted by the result of its evaluation (float
value). For instance,
expression '{0,w+h}' is substituted by the sum of the width and height
of the first image (see
section Mathematical Expressions for more details). If a mathematical
expression starts with an
underscore _, the resulting value is truncated to a readable format.
For instance, item '{_pi}'
is substituted by '3.14159' (while '{pi}' is substituted by
'3.141592653589793').
- A 'feature' delimited by backquotes is replaced by a string whose
character codes correspond to
the list of values resulting from the evaluation of the specified
mathematical expression. For
instance, item '{[102,111,111]}' is substituted by 'foo'
and item '{vector8(65)}' by 'AAAAAAAA'.
* '{*}' is substituted by the visibility state of the instant display
window '#0]' (can be {
0=closed | 1=visible }.
* '{*[index],feature1,...,featureN[:delimiter]}' is substituted by a
specific set of features of
the instant display window '#0' (or '#index', if specified).
Requested 'features' can be:
- 'w': display width (i.e. width of the display area managed by the
window).
- 'h': display height (i.e. height of the display area managed by the
window).
- 'wh': display width x display height.
- 'd': window width (i.e. width of the window widget).
- 'e': window height (i.e. height of the window widget).
- 'de': window width x window height.
- 'u': screen width (actually independent on the window size).
- 'v': screen height (actually independent on the window size).
- 'uv': screen width x screen height.
- 'n': current normalization type of the instant display.
- 't': window title of the instant display.
- 'x': X-coordinate of the mouse position (or -1, if outside the
display area).
- 'y': Y-coordinate of the mouse position (or -1, if outside the
display area).
- 'b': state of the mouse buttons { 1=left-but. |
2=right-but. | 4=middle-but. }.
- 'o': state of the mouse wheel.
- 'k': decimal code of the pressed key if any, 0 otherwise.
- 'c': boolean (0 or 1) telling if the instant display has been closed
recently.
- 'r': boolean telling if the instant display has been resized
recently.
- 'm': boolean telling if the instant display has been moved recently.
- Any other 'feature' stands for a keycode name (in capital letters),
and is substituted by a
boolean describing the current key state { 0=pressed | 1=released
}.
- You can also prepend a hyphen '-' to a 'feature' (that
supports it) to flush the corresponding
event immediately after reading its state (works for keys, mouse and window
events).
* Item substitution is never performed in items between double quotes.
One must break the
quotes to enable substitution if needed, as in '"3+8 kg =
"{3+8}" kg"'. Using double quotes is then
a convenient way to disable the substitutions mechanism in items, when
necessary.
* One can also disable the substitution mechanism on items outside double
quotes, by escaping the
{, } or $ characters, as in
3+4 doesn't evaluate.
9. Mathematical Expressions
------------------------
* G'MIC has an embedded mathematical parser, used to evaluate
(possibly complex) math
expressions specified inside braces '{}', or formulas in commands that
may take one as an argument
(e.g. 'fill').
* When the context allows it, a formula is evaluated for each pixel of the
selected images
(e.g. 'fill').
* A math expression may return a scalar or a vector-valued result (with a
fixed number of
components).
The mathematical parser understands the following set of functions, operators
and variables:
# Usual operators:
'||' (logical or), '&&' (logical and), '|'
(bitwise or), '&' (bitwise and), '!=', '==',
'<=', '>=',
'<', '>', '<<' (left bitwise shift),
'>>' (right bitwise shift), '-', '+', '*',
'/', '%' (modulo),
'^' (power), '!' (logical not), '~' (bitwise not),
'++', '--', '+=', '-=', '*=',
'/=', '%=', '&=',
'|=', '^=', '>>', '<<=' (in-place
operators).
# Usual math functions:
'abs()', 'acos()', 'acosh()', 'arg()',
'arg0()', 'argkth()', 'argmax()', 'argmaxabs()',
'argmin()',
'argminabs()', 'asin()', 'asinh()', 'atan()',
'atan2()', 'atanh()', 'avg()', 'bool()',
'cbrt()',
'ceil()', 'cos()', 'cosh()', 'cut()',
'exp()', 'fact()', 'fibo()', 'floor()',
'gauss()', 'gcd()',
'int()', 'isnan()', 'isnum()', 'isinf()',
'isint()', 'isbool()', 'isexpr()', 'isfile()',
'isdir()',
'isin()', 'kth()', 'log()', 'log2()',
'log10()', 'max()', 'maxabs()', 'med()',
'min()', 'minabs()',
'narg()', 'prod()', 'rol()' (left bit rotation),
'ror()' (right bit rotation), 'round()', 'sign()',
'sin()', 'sinc()', 'sinh()', 'sqrt()',
'std()', 'srand(_seed)', 'sum()', 'tan()',
'tanh()',
'var()', 'xor()'.
* 'atan2(y,x)' is the version of 'atan()' with two arguments
'y' and 'x' (as in C/C++).
* 'permut(k,n,with_order)' computes the number of permutations of
'k' objects from a set of 'n'

(false) or '1' (true) whether its string
argument is a path to an existing file (resp. to a directory) or not.
* 'isin(v,a_1,...,a_n)' returns '0' (false) or '1'
(true) whether the first value 'v' appears in
the set of other values 'a_i'.
* 'inrange(value,m,M,include_m,include_M)' returns '0' (false)
or '1' (true) whether the specified
value lies in range '[m,M]' or not ('include_m' and
'includeM' tells how boundaries 'm' and 'M' are
considered).
* 'argkth()', 'argmin()', 'argmax()',
'argminabs()', 'argmaxabs()'', 'avg()', 'kth()',
'min()',
'max()', 'minabs()', 'maxabs()', 'med()',
'prod()', 'std()', 'sum()' and 'var()' can be
called with
an arbitrary number of scalar/vector arguments.
* 'vargkth()', 'vargmin()', 'vargmax()',
'vargminabs()', 'vargmaxabs()', 'vavg()',
'vkth()',
'vmin()', 'vmax()', 'vminabs()', 'vmaxabs()',
'vmed()', 'vprod()', 'vstd()', 'vsum()' and
'vvar()'
are the versions of the previous function with vector-valued arguments.
* 'round(value,rounding_value,direction)' returns a rounded value.

-1=to-lowest | 0=to-nearest | 1=to-highest }.
* 'lerp(a,b,t)' returns 'a*(1-t) + b*t'.

# Variable names:
Variable names below are pre-defined. They can be overridden.
* 'l': length of the associated list of images.
* 'k': index of the associated image, in '[0,l-1]'.
* 'w': width of the associated image, if any ('0'
otherwise).
* 'h': height of the associated image, if any ('0'
otherwise).
* 'd': depth of the associated image, if any ('0'
otherwise).
* 's': spectrum of the associated image, if any ('0'
otherwise).
* 'r': shared state of the associated image, if any ('0'
otherwise).
* 'wh': shortcut for width x height.
* 'whd': shortcut for width x height x depth.
* 'whds': shortcut for width x height x depth x spectrum (i.e. number
of image values).
* 'im', 'iM', 'ia', 'iv', 'is',
'ip', 'ic', 'in': Respectively the minimum, maximum,
average,
variance, sum, product, median value and L2-norm of the associated image, if
any ('0' otherwise).
* 'xm', 'ym', 'zm', 'cm': The pixel coordinates
of the minimum value in the associated image, if
any ('0' otherwise).
* 'xM', 'yM', 'zM', 'cM': The pixel coordinates
of the maximum value in the associated image, if
any ('0' otherwise).
* All these variables are considered as constant values by the math
parser (for optimization
purposes) which is indeed the case most of the time. Anyway, this might not
be the case, if
function 'resize(#ind,..)' is used in the math expression. If so, it
is safer to invoke functions
'l()', 'w(_#ind)', 'h(_#ind)', ... 's(_#ind)' and
'in(_#ind)' instead of the corresponding named
variables.
* 'i': current processed pixel value (i.e. value located at
(x,y,z,c)) in the associated image,
if any ('0' otherwise).
* 'iN': N-th channel value of current processed pixel (i.e. value
located at (x,y,z,N) in the
associated image, if any ('0' otherwise). 'N' must be an
integer in range '[0,9]'.
* 'R', 'G', 'B' and 'A' are equivalent to
'i0', 'i1', 'i2' and 'i3' respectively.
* 'I': current vector-valued processed pixel in the associated image,
if any ('0' otherwise). The
number of vector components is equal to the number of image channels (e.g.
'I' = [ R,G,B ] for a
RGB image).
* You may add '#ind' to any of the variable name above to retrieve the
information for any numbered
image '[ind]' of the list (when this makes sense). For instance
'ia#0' denotes the average value of
the first image of the list).
* 'x': current processed column of the associated image, if any
('0' otherwise).
* 'y': current processed row of the associated image, if any
('0' otherwise).
* 'z': current processed slice of the associated image, if any
('0' otherwise).
* 'c': current processed channel of the associated image, if any
('0' otherwise).
* 't': thread id when an expression is evaluated with multiple threads
('0' means __master
thread__).
* 'e': value of e, i.e. 2.71828....
* 'pi': value of pi, i.e. 3.1415926....
* 'u': a random value between '[0,1]', following a uniform
distribution.
* 'g': a random value, following a gaussian distribution of variance 1
(roughly in '[-6,6]').
* 'interpolation': value of the default interpolation mode used when
reading pixel values with the
pixel access operators (i.e. when the interpolation argument is not
explicitly specified, see below
for more details on pixel access operators). Its initial default value is
'0'.
* 'boundary': value of the default boundary conditions used when
reading pixel values with the
pixel access operators (i.e. when the boundary condition argument is not
explicitly specified, see
below for more details on pixel access operators). Its initial default value
is '0'.
# Vector calculus:
Most operators are also able to work with vector-valued elements.
* '[a0,a1,...,aN-1]' defines a 'N'-dimensional vector with
scalar coefficients 'ak'.
* 'vectorN(a0,a1,,...,aN-1)' does the same, with the 'ak' being
repeated periodically if only a few
are specified.
* 'vector(#N,a0,a1,,...,aN-1)' does the same, and can be used for any
constant expression 'N'.
* In previous expressions, the 'ak' can be vectors themselves, to be
concatenated into a single
vector.
* The scalar element 'ak' of a vector 'X' is retrieved by
'X[k]'.
* The sub-vector '[X[p],X[p+s]...X[p+s*(q-1)]]' (of size 'q')
of a vector 'X' is retrieved by
'X[p,q,s]'.
* 'expr('formula',_w,_h,_d,_s)' outputs a vector of size
'w*h*d*s' with values generated from the
specified formula, as if one were filling an image with dimensions
'(w,h,d,s)'.
* Equality/inequality comparisons between two vectors is done with operators
'==' and '!='.
* Some vector-specific functions can be used on vector values:
'cross(X,Y)' (cross product),
'dot(X,Y)' (dot product), 'size(X)' (vector dimension),
'sort(X,_is_increasing,_nb_elts,_size_elt)'
(sorted values), 'reverse(A)' (reverse order of components),
'shift(A,_length,_boundary_conditions)' and
'same(A,B,_nb_vals,_is_case_sensitive)' (vector
equality test).
* Function 'normP(u1,...,un)' computes the LP-norm of the specified
vector ('P' being an `unsigned
integer` constant or 'inf'). If 'P' is omitted, the L2 norm is
calculated.
* Function 'resize(A,size,_interpolation,_boundary_conditions)'
returns a resized version of a
vector 'A' with specified interpolation mode. 'interpolation'
can be { -1=none (memory content) |
0=none | 1=nearest | 2=average | 3=linear | 4=grid | 5=bicubic | 6=lanczos },
and
'boundary_conditions' can be { 0=dirichlet | 1=neumann |
2=periodic | 3=mirror }.
* Function 'find(A,B,_starting_index,_search_step)' returns the index
where sub-vector 'B' appears
in vector 'A', (or '-1' if 'B' is not contained in
'A'). Argument 'A' can be also replaced by an
image index '#ind'.
* A 2-dimensional vector may be seen as a complex number and used in
those particular
functions/operators: '**' (complex multiplication), '//'
(complex division), '^^' (complex
exponentiation), '**=' (complex self-multiplication), '//='
(complex self-division), '^^=' (complex
self-exponentiation), 'cabs()' (complex modulus), 'carg()'
(complex argument), 'cconj()' (complex
conjugate), 'cexp()' (complex exponential), 'clog()' (complex
logarithm), 'ccos()' (complex
cosine), 'csin()' (complex sine), 'ctan()' (complex tangent),
'ccosh()' (complex hyperpolic
cosine), 'csinh()' (complex hyperbolic sine) and 'ctanh()'
(complex hyperbolic tangent).
* A MN-dimensional vector may be seen as a M x N matrix
and used in those particular
functions/operators: '*' (matrix-vector multiplication),
'det(A)' (determinant), 'diag(V)'
(diagonal matrix from a vector), 'eig(A)' (eigenvalues/eigenvectors),
'eye(n)' (n x n identity
matrix), 'invert(A,_solver)' (matrix inverse),
'mul(A,B,_nb_colsB)' (matrix-matrix multiplication),
'pseudoinvert(A,_nb_colsA,_solver)', 'rot(u,v,w,angle)' (3D
rotation matrix), 'rot(angle)' (2D
rotation matrix), 'solve(A,B,_nb_colsB)' (solver of linear system A.X
= B), 'svd(A,_nb_colsA)'
(singular value decomposition), 'trace(A)' (matrix trace) and
'transpose(A,nb_colsA)' (matrix
transpose). Argument 'nb_colsB' may be omitted if it is equal to
1.
* 'mproj(S,nb_colsS,D,nb_colsD,method,max_iter,max_residual)' projects
a matrix 'S' onto a
dictionary (matrix) 'D'. Equivalent to command mproj but inside
the math evaluator.
* Specifying a vector-valued math expression as an argument of a command that
operates on image
values (e.g. 'fill') modifies the whole spectrum range of the
processed image(s), for each spatial
coordinates (x,y,z). The command does not loop over the c-axis
in this case.
# String manipulation:
Character strings are defined and managed as vectors objects. Dedicated
functions and initializers
to manage strings are:
* ['string'] and 'string' define a vector whose values are the
character codes of the specified
character string (e.g. 'foo' is equal to [ 102,111,111
]).
* _'character' returns the (scalar) byte code of the specified
character (e.g. _'A' is equal to
'65').
* A special case happens for empty strings: Values of both expressions
[''] and '' are '0'.
* Functions 'lowercase()' and 'uppercase()' return string with
all string characters lowercased or
uppercased.
* Function 'stov(str,_starting_index,_is_strict)' parses specified
string 'str' and returns the
value contained in it.
* Function 'vtos(expr,_nb_digits,_siz)' returns a vector of size
'siz' which contains the character
representation of values described by expression 'expr'.
'nb_digits' can be { -1=auto-reduced |
0=all | >0=max number of digits }.
* Function 'echo(str1,str2,...,strN)' prints the concatenation of
given string arguments on the
console.
* Function 'string(_#siz,str1,str2,...,strN)' generates a vector
corresponding to the concatenation
of given string/number arguments.
# Special operators:
* ';': expression separator. The returned value is always the last
encountered expression. For
instance expression '1;2;pi' is evaluated as 'pi'.
* '=': variable assignment. Variables in mathematical parser can only
refer to numerical values
(vectors or scalars). Variable names are case-sensitive. Use this operator in
conjunction with ';'
to define more complex evaluable expressions, such as
t = cos(x); 3*t^2 + 2*t + 1
These variables remain local to the mathematical parser and cannot be
accessed outside the
evaluated expression.
* Variables defined in math parser may have a constant property, by
specifying keyword 'const'
before the variable name (e.g. 'const foo = pi/4;'). The value set to
such a variable must be
indeed a constant scalar. Constant variables allows certain types of
optimizations in the math
JIT compiler.
# Specific functions:
* 'u(max)' or 'u(min,max)': return a random value between
'[0,max]' or '[min,max]', following a
uniform distribution.
* 'f2ui(value)' and 'ui2f(value)': Convert a large unsigned
integer as a negative floating point
value (and vice-versa), so that 32bits floats can be used to store large
integers while keeping a
unitary precision.
* 'i(_a,_b,_c,_d,_interpolation_type,_boundary_conditions)': return
the value of the pixel located
at position (a,b,c,d) in the associated image, if any ('0'
otherwise). 'interpolation_type' can
be { 0=nearest neighbor | 1=linear | 2=cubic }.
'boundary_conditions' can be { 0=dirichlet |
1=neumann | 2=periodic | 3=mirror }. Omitted coordinates are replaced by
their default values which
are respectively 'x', 'y', 'z', 'c',
'interpolation' and 'boundary'. For instance command
fill 0.5*(i(x+1)-i(x-1))
will estimate the X-derivative of an image with a classical finite difference
scheme.
* 'j(_dx,_dy,_dz,_dc,_interpolation_type,_boundary_conditions)' does
the same for the pixel located
at position (x+dx,y+dy,z+dz,c+dc) (pixel access relative to the
current coordinates).
* 'i[offset,_boundary_conditions]' returns the value of the pixel
located at specified 'offset' in
the associated image buffer (or '0' if offset is out-of-bounds).
* 'j[offset,_boundary_conditions]' does the same for an offset
relative to the current pixel
coordinates (x,y,z,c).
* 'i(#ind,_x,_y,_z,_c,_interpolation,_boundary_conditions)',
'j(#ind,_dx,_dy,_dz,_dc,_interpolation,_boundary_conditions)',
'i[#ind,offset,_boundary_conditions]' and
'i[offset,_boundary_conditions]' are similar expressions
used to access pixel values for any numbered image '[ind]' of the
list.
* 'I/J[offset,_boundary_conditions]' and
'I/J(#ind,_x,_y,_z,_interpolation,_boundary_conditions)'
do the same as 'i/j[offset,_boundary_conditions]' and
'i/j(#ind,_x,_y,_z,_c,_interpolation,_boundary
_conditions)' but return a vector instead of a scalar (e.g. a vector [
R,G,B ] for a pixel at
(a,b,c) in a color image).
* 'crop(_#ind,_x,_y,_z,_c,_dx,_dy,_dz,_dc,_boundary_conditions)'
returns a vector whose values come
from the cropped region of image '[ind]' (or from default image
selected if 'ind' is not
specified). Cropped region starts from point (x,y,z,c) and has a size
of dx x dy x dz x dc.
Arguments for coordinates and sizes can be omitted if they are not ambiguous
(e.g.
'crop(#ind,x,y,dx,dy)' is a valid invocation of this function).
* 'draw(_#ind,S,x,y,z,c,dx,_dy,_dz,_dc,_opacity,_M,_max_M)' draws a
sprite 'S' in image '[ind]' (or
in default image selected if 'ind' is not specified) at coordinates
(x,y,z,c). The size of the
sprite dx x dy x dz x dc must be specified. You can also specify a
corresponding opacity mask 'M'
if its size matches 'S'.
* 'polygon(_#ind,nb_vertices,coords,_opacity,_color)' draws a filled
polygon in image '[ind]' (or
in default image selected if 'ind' is not specified) at specified
coordinates. It draws a single
line if 'nb_vertices' is set to 2.
* 'polygon(_#ind,-nb_vertices,coords,_opacity,_pattern,_color)' draws
a outlined polygon in image
'[ind]' (or in default image selected if 'ind' is not
specified) at specified coordinates and with
specified line pattern. It draws a single line if 'nb_vertices' is set
to 2.
* 'ellipse(_#ind,xc,yc,radius1,_radius2,_angle,_opacity,_color)' draws
a filled ellipse in image
'[ind]' (or in default image selected if 'ind' is not
specified) with specified coordinates.
*
'ellipse(_#ind,xc,yc,-radius1,-_radius2,_angle,_opacity,_pattern,_color)'
draws an outlined
ellipse in image '[ind]' (or in default image selected if 'ind'
is not specified).
*
'resize(#ind,w,_h,_d,_s,_interp,_boundary_conditions,_cx,_cy,_cz,_cc)'
resizes an image of the
associated list with specified dimension and interpolation method. When using
this function, you
should consider retrieving the (non-constant) image dimensions using the
dynamic functions
'w(_#ind)', 'h(_#ind)', 'd(_#ind)', 's(_#ind)',
'wh(_#ind)', 'whd(_#ind)' and 'whds(_#ind)' instead
of the corresponding constant variables.
* 'if(condition,expr_then,_expr_else)': return value of
'expr_then' or 'expr_else', depending on
the value of 'condition' { 0=false | other=true }.
'expr_else' can be omitted in which case '0' is
returned if the condition does not hold. Using the ternary operator
'condition?expr_then[:expr_else]' gives an equivalent expression. For
instance, G'MIC commands
fill if(x%10==0,255,i)
and
fill x%10?i:255
both draw blank vertical lines on every 10th column of an image.
* 'do(expression,_condition)' repeats the evaluation of
'expression' until 'condition' vanishes (or
until 'expression' vanishes if no 'condition' is specified).
For instance, the expression:
if(N<2,N,n=N-1;F0=0;F1=1;do(F2=F0+F1;F0=F1;F1=F2,n=n-1))
returns the N-th value of the Fibonacci sequence, for 'N>=0' (e.g.,
'46368' for 'N=24').
'do(expression,condition)' always evaluates the specified expression
at least once, then check for
the loop condition. When done, it returns the last value of
'expression'.
* 'for(init,condition,_procedure,body)' first evaluates the expression
'init', then iteratively
evaluates 'body' (followed by 'procedure' if specified) while
'condition' holds (i.e. not zero). It
may happen that no iterations are done, in which case the function returns
'nan'. Otherwise, it
returns the last value of 'body'. For instance, the expression:
if(N<2,N,for(n=N;F0=0;F1=1,n=n-1,F2=F0+F1;F0=F1;F1=F2))
returns the 'N'-th value of the Fibonacci sequence, for
'N>=0' (e.g., '46368' for 'N=24').
* 'while(condition,expression)' is exactly the same as
'for(init,condition,expression)' without the
specification of an initializing expression.
* 'break()' and 'continue()' respectively breaks and continues
the current running bloc (loop, init
or main environment).
* 'fsize('filename')' returns the size of the specified
'filename' (or '-1' if file does not exist).
* 'date(attr,'path')' returns the date attribute for the given
'path' (file or directory), with
'attr' being { 0=year | 1=month | 2=day | 3=day of week |
4=hour | 5=minute | 6=second }, or a
vector of those values.
* 'date(_attr)' returns the specified attribute for the current
(locale) date (attributes being {
0...6=same meaning as above | 7=milliseconds }).
* 'print(expr1,expr2,...)' or 'print(#ind)' prints the value of
the specified expressions (or image
information) on the console, and returns the value of the last expression (or
'nan' in case of an
image). Function 'prints(expr)' also prints the string composed of the
character codes defined by
the vector-valued expression (e.g. 'prints('Hello')').
* 'debug(expression)' prints detailed debug info about the sequence of
operations done by the math
parser to evaluate the expression (and returns its value).
* 'display(_X,_w,_h,_d,_s)' or 'display(#ind)' display the
contents of the vector 'X' (or specified
image) and wait for user events. if no arguments are provided, a memory
snapshot of the math parser
environment is displayed instead.
* 'begin(expression)' and 'end(expression)' evaluates the
specified expressions only once,
respectively at the beginning and end of the evaluation procedure, and this,
even when multiple
evaluations are required (e.g. in 'fill ">begin(foo = 0);
++foo"').
* 'copy(dest,src,_nb_elts,_inc_d,_inc_s,_opacity)' copies an entire
memory block of 'nb_elts'
elements starting from a source value 'src' to a specified destination
'dest', with increments
defined by 'inc_d' and 'inc_s' respectively for the destination
and source pointers.
* 'stats(_#ind)' returns the statistics vector of the running image
'[ind]', i.e the vector `[
im,iM,ia,iv,xm,ym,zm,cm,xM,yM,zM,cM,is,ip ]` (14 values).
* 'ref(expr,a)' references specified expression 'expr' as
variable name 'a'.
* 'unref(a,b,...)' destroys references to the named variable given as
arguments.
* 'breakpoint()' inserts a possible computation breakpoint (useless
with the cli interface).
* '_(expr)' just ignores its arguments (useful for inserting inline
comments in math expressions).
* 'run('pipeline')' executes the specified G'MIC pipeline as if
it was called outside the currently
evaluated expression.
* 'store(A,'varname',_w,_h,_d,_s,_is_compressed)' transfers the data
of vector 'A' as a `w x h x d
x s` image to the G'MIC variable '$varname'. Thus, the data
becomes available outside the math
expression (that is equivalent to using the regular command 'store',
but directly in the math
expression).
* 'get('variable_name',_size,_to_numbers)' returns the value of the
specified variable, as a vector
of 'size' values, or as a scalar (if 'size' is zero or not
specified).
* 'name(_#ind,size)' returns a vector of size 'size', whose
values are the characters codes of the
name of image '[ind]' (or default image selected if 'ind' is
not specified).
*
'correlate(I,wI,hI,dI,sI,K,wK,hK,dK,sK,_boundary_conditions,_is_normalized,_channel_mode,_xcenter,
_ycenter,_zcenter,_xstart,_ystart,_zstart,_xend,_yend,_zend,_xstride,_ystride,_zstride,_xdilation,_y
dilation,_zdilation)' returns the correlation, unrolled as a vector, of the
`wI x hI x dI x
sI-sized image 'I' with the wK x hK x dK x sK`-sized kernel
'K' (the meaning of the other
arguments are the same as in command 'correlate'). Similar function
'convolve(...)' is also defined
for computing the convolution between 'I' and 'K'.
# User-defined macros:
* Custom macro functions can be defined in a math expression, using the
assignment operator '=',
e.g.
foo(x,y) = cos(x + y); result = foo(1,2) + foo(2,3)
* Trying to override a built-in function (e.g. 'abs()') has no
effect.
* Overloading macros with different number of arguments is possible.
Re-defining a previously
defined macro with the same number of arguments discards its previous
definition.
* Macro functions are indeed processed as macros by the mathematical
evaluator. You should
avoid invoking them with arguments that are themselves results of assignments
or self-operations.
For instance,
foo(x) = x + x; z = 0; foo(++z)
returns '4' rather than expected value '2'.
* When substituted, macro arguments are placed inside parentheses, except if
a number sign '#' is
located just before or after the argument name. For instance, expression
foo(x,y) = x*y; foo(1+2,3)
returns '9' (being substituted as '(1+2)*(3)'), while
expression
foo(x,y) = x#*y#; foo(1+2,3)
returns '7' (being substituted as '1+2*3').
* Number signs appearing between macro arguments function actually count for
empty separators.
They may be used to force the substitution of macro arguments in unusual
places, e.g. as in
str(N) = ['I like N#'];
# Multi-threaded and in-place evaluation:
* If your image data are large enough and you have several CPUs available, it
is likely that the
math expression passed to a 'fill', 'eval' or 'input'
commands is evaluated in parallel, using
multiple computation threads.
* Starting an expression with ':' or '*' forces the evaluations
required for an image to be run in
parallel, even if the amount of data to process is small (beware, it may be
slower to evaluate in
this case!). Specify ':' (rather than '*') to avoid possible
image copy done before evaluating the
expression (this saves memory, but do this only if you are sure this step is
not required!)
* If the specified expression starts with '>' or '<', the
pixel access operators 'i()', 'i[]',
'j()' and 'j[]' return values of the image being currently
modified, in forward ('>') or backward
('<') order. The multi-threading evaluation of the expression is
disabled in this case.
* Function 'critical(expr)' forces the execution of the given
expression in a single thread at a
time.
* 'begin_t(expr)' and 'end_t(expr)' evaluates the specified
expression once for each running thread
(so possibly several times) at the beginning and the end of the evaluation
procedure.
* 'merge(variable,operator)' tells to merge the local variable value
computed by threads, with the
specified operator, when all threads have finished computing.
* Expressions 'i(_#ind,x,_y,_z,_c)=value',
'j(_#ind,x,_y,_z,_c)=value', 'i[_#ind,offset]=value' and
'j[_#ind,offset]=value' set a pixel value at a different location than
the running one in the image
'[ind]' (or in the associated image if argument '#ind' is
omitted), either with global
coordinates/offsets (with 'i(...)' and 'i[...]'), or relatively
to the current position (x,y,z,c)
(with 'j(...)' and 'j[...]'). These expressions always return
'value'.
* The last image of the list is always associated to the evaluations of
'expressions', e.g. G'MIC
sequence
256,128 fill {w}
will create a 256x128 image filled with value 256.
10. Image and Data Viewers
----------------------
* G'MIC has some very handy embedded visualization modules, for 1D

11. Adding Custom Commands
----------------------
* New custom commands can be added by the user, through the use of
G'MIC custom commands files.
* A command file is a simple text file, where each line starts either by
command_name: command_definition
or
command_definition (continuation)
* At startup, G'MIC automatically includes user's command file
'$HOME/.gmic' (on Unix) or
'%APPDATA%/user.gmic' (on Windows). The CLI tool 'gmic'
automatically runs the command
'cli_start' if defined.
* Custom command names must use character set [a-zA-Z0-9_] and cannot
start with a number.
* Any '# comment' expression found in a custom commands file is
discarded by the G'MIC parser,
wherever it is located in a line.
* In a custom command, the following '$-expressions' are recognized
and substituted:
- '$*' is substituted by a copy of the specified string of arguments.
- '$"*"' is substituted by a copy of the specified string of
arguments, each being double-quoted.
- '$#' is substituted by the maximum index of known arguments (either
specified by the user or
set to a default value in the custom command).
- '$[]' is substituted by the list of selected image indices that have
been specified in the
command invocation.
- '$?' is substituted by a printable version of '$[]' to be
used in command descriptions.
- '$i' and '${i}' are both substituted by the i-th
specified argument. Negative indices such as
'${-j}' are allowed and refer to the j-th latest argument.
'$0' is substituted by the custom
command name.
- '${i=default}' is substituted by the value of '$i' (if
defined) or by its new value set to
'default' otherwise ('default' may be a $-expression as
well).
- '${subset}' is substituted by the argument values (separated by
commas ',') of a specified
argument subset. For instance expression '${2--2}' is substituted by
all specified command
arguments except the first and the last one. Expression '${^0}' is
then substituted by all
arguments of the invoked command (eq. to '$*' if all arguments have
been indeed specified).
- '$=var' is substituted by the set of instructions that will assign
each argument '$i' to the
named variable 'var$i' (for i in '[0...$#]'. This is
particularly useful when a custom command want
to manage variable numbers of arguments. Variables names must use character
set [a-zA-Z0-9_] and
cannot start with a number.
* These particular $-expressions for custom commands are always
substituted, even in
double-quoted items or when the dollar sign '$' is escaped with a
backslash 'fR'. To avoid
substitution, place an empty double quoted string just after the
'$' (as in '$""1').
* Specifying arguments may be skipped when invoking a custom command, by
replacing them by commas
',' as in expression
flower ,,3
Omitted arguments are set to their default values, which must be thus
explicitly defined in the
code of the corresponding custom command (using default argument expressions
as '${1=default}').
* If one numbered argument required by a custom command misses a value, an
error is thrown by the
G'MIC interpreter.
12. List of Commands
----------------
All available G'MIC commands are listed below, by categories. An
argument specified between '[]' or
starting by '_' is optional except when standing for an existing image
'[image]', where 'image' can
be either an index number or an image name. In this case, the '[]'
characters are mandatory when
writing the item. Note that all images that serve as illustrations in this
reference documentation
are normalized in range [0,255] before being displayed. You may need
to do this explicitly
(command 'normalize 0,255') if you want to save and view images with
the same aspect than those
illustrated in the example codes.
12.1. Global Options
--------------
debug (+):
Activate debug mode.
When activated, the G'MIC interpreter becomes very verbose and outputs
additional log
messages about its internal state on the standard output (stdout).
This option is useful for developers or to report possible bugs of the
interpreter.
h:
Shortcut for command 'help'.
help:
command |
(no arg)
Display help (optionally for specified command only) and exit.
(equivalent to shortcut command 'h').
version:
Display current version number on stdout.
12.2. Input / Output
--------------
camera (+):
_camera_index>=0,_nb_frames>0,_skip_frames>=0,_capture_width>=0,_capture_height>=0
Insert one or several frames from specified camera.
When 'nb_frames==0', the camera stream is released instead of
capturing new images.
Default values: 'camera_index=0' (default camera),
'nb_frames=1', 'skip_frames=0' and
'capture_width=capture_height=0' (default size).
clut:
"clut_name",_resolution>0,_cut_and_round={ 0=no | 1=yes }
Insert one of the 862 pre-defined CLUTs at the end of the image list.
'clut_name' can be { 2-strip-process | 60s | 60s_faded | 60s_faded_alt

context.
By default (adaptive shared state), selected images are inserted in a shared
state if they do not
belong

| uint64 | int64 | float |
double }.
Specify 'datatype' if all selected images have a range of values
constrained to a particular
datatype,
in order to minimize the memory footprint.
The resulting image has only integers values in [0,255] and can then be saved
as a raw image of
unsigned chars (doing so will output a valid .cimg[z] or .gmz file).
If 'store_names' is set to '1', serialization uses the .gmz
format to store data in memory

locations for drawing
the sprites.
All other selected images represent the sprites considered for packing.
Their last channel must be a binary mask that represents the sprite shape
(i.e. a 8-connected
component).

or 3x3 symmetric
matrices,
whose eigen elements are computed at each point of the field.

mproj (+):
[dictionary],_method,_max_iter={ 0=auto | >0 },_max_residual>=0
Find best matching projection of selected matrices onto the span of an
over-complete
dictionary D, using the orthogonal projection or Matching Pursuit algorithm.
Selected images are 2D-matrices in which each column represent a signal to
project.
'[dictionary]' is a matrix in which each column is an element of the
dictionary D.
'method' tells what projection algorithm must be applied. It can be:
- 0 = orthogonal projection (least-squares solution using LU-based
solver).
- 1 = matching pursuit.
- 2 = matching pursuit, with a single orthogonal projection step at
the end.
- >=3 = orthogonal matching pursuit where an orthogonal
projection step is performed
every 'method-2' iterations.
'max_iter' sets the max number of iterations processed for each
signal.
If set to '0' (default), 'max_iter' is equal to the number of
columns in D.
(only meaningful for matching pursuit and its variants).
'max_residual' gives a stopping criterion on signal reconstruction
accuracy.
(only meaningful for matching pursuit and its variants).
For each selected image, the result is returned as a matrix W
whose columns correspond to the weights associated to each column of D,
such that the matrix product D*W is an approximation of the input matrix.
Default values: 'method=0', 'max_iter=0' and
'max_residual=1e-6'.
solve (+):
