I am familiar with ImageMagick and believe it is not under active
development anymore. Graphicsmagick has replaced it and/or definitely
forked Image. As far as feh it is a image viewer. It pretends to do
nothing but show pictures and I have found it more reliable than full
blown gui apps. I know it runs ontop of X but I'm not sure if it runs in
FrameBuffer. But then you can use fbida and zv out of X. Feh also
integrates well with Mutt and viewing images in emails.s far as newness
a "quick glance shows at a min. 4 yr history. :) I'm assuming, but not
confirmed on this it came over from the BSD's. Then the climate in the
early 90's was mostly cli so it could have started there. In addition
feh is used all across the "oodles" de's/wm's as screensavers and
background setters for the desktop. I have used feh to make conky
transparent. I was more like a glue because conky couldn't do it by
itself and the layers for the background of KDE 3.5.x have an invisible
layer that feh manipulates to make conky "disappear".
