223 <p>The <kbd>conjure</kbd> program gives you the ability to perform custom image processing tasks from a script written in the Magick Scripting Language (MSL).  MSL is XML-based and consists of action statements with attributes.  Actions include reading an image, processing an image, getting attributes from an image, writing an image, and more.  An attribute is a key/value pair that modifies the behavior of an action.  See <a href="../www/command-line-processing.html">Command Line Processing</a> for advice on how to structure your <kbd>conjure</kbd> command or see below for example usages of the command.</p>

228
229 <p>We list a few examples of the <kbd>conjure</kbd> command here to illustrate its usefulness and ease of use. To get started, here is simple <kbd>conjure</kbd> command:</p>

232 <p>The MSL script <a href="../www/source/incantation.msl">incantation.msl</a> used above is here:</p>
233
234 <pre class="text">

245
246 <p>In this example, a family stayed home for their vacation but as far as their friends are concerned they went to a beautiful beach in the Caribbean:</p>

297 </p>
