in reply to Can a Perl module "inspect" itself and provide details about methods and parameters?

I'm suffering through an exercise to do some image processing with ImageMagick by way of PerlMagick (the Image::Magick Perl module). The documentation is maddening (notwithstanding RLS's praise of it as "unimpressive"), and anyone who wants to do anything other than a simple example, will find theirself roundtripping from pillar to post.

Just as a note, you might be interested in How Geizhals took out ImageMagick before ImageMagick took *us* out.

    Sidebar on the same topic: GraphicsMagick is, or at least was, a safer and more performant fork of ImageMagick. It’s been several years since I knew that to be a fact however so take it with a pinch of kosher.
