Re^3: Reading an image palette

What do you want returned? Identify prints it's output to the terminal. If you want to capture the output for regexing, run the c command thru backticks or a piped open.

#my $return = `identify -verbose  $file`;
#print $return;
my $pid = open(my $fh,"identify -verbose $file |");
while(<$fh>){print }

I thought my post made it very clear that's just what I was already doing- Looking back at it, I made a poor job of stating that. zentara, you must see my confusion with the fact that Identify() method specifically outputs to (STDERR? Or tty?). I guess this would be the most 'funny' thing I've ever seen Image::Magick do. That's saying a lot. I mean, really? Method Identify().. so that it may output to the tty (must be STDERR) exactly what cli identify would do? Really? Let's just put in a method called 'Trasparentize' that prints empty strings to "QWERTY".. Thanks for the piped open example.	[reply]
