prompt> display <multiple images>
prompt> display -loop <iterations> <multiple images>

Description: image manipulation programs -- binaries
  ImageMagick is a software suite to create, edit, and compose bitmap 
images.
  It can read, convert and write images in a variety of formats (over 100)
  including DPX, EXR, GIF, JPEG, JPEG-2000, PDF, PhotoCD, PNG, Postscript,
  SVG, and TIFF. Use ImageMagick to translate, flip, mirror, rotate, scale,
  shear and transform images, adjust image colors, apply various special
  effects, or draw text, lines, polygons, ellipses and Bézier curves.
  All manipulations can be achieved through shell commands as well as 
through
  an X11 graphical interface (display).

  pages.
