The documentation is found here
Heh. That's sort of a sketch of the docs. That's not the real docs. The real docs do not exist. Most of the time, I end up starting from one of the tests in the Perl module distro, and then slowly mutating it to make sure it still works and is still doing what I want it to do.

On a recent 15-line script (to grab the the timestamps from the EXIF data), I ended up having to stare at the C sources for about an hour, and just "try" things repeatedly. I'm no dummy, and it took me that long. Gah.

I'm not sure what it is about image-manipulation software that makes them all: (a) fragile, (b) underdocumented, and (c) hard to install. It's very consistent.
