# GraphicsMagick Utilities

GraphicsMagick provides a powerful command line utility gm, which may be used to access all GraphicsMagick functions. Gm uses a consistent set of options (see options documentation). GraphicsMagick provides access to major commands via a single executable command-line program; for example, to use the "convert" sub-command, type gm convert .... The available commands are as follows:

animate | Animate a sequence of images
batch | Executes an arbitrary number of utility commands
benchmark | Measure and report utility command performance.
compare | Compare two images using statistics and/or visual differencing
composite | Composite images together
conjure | Execute a Magick Scripting Language (MSL) XML script

mogrify | Transform an image or sequence of images
