I'm guessing this person hasn't used (ImageMagick) "convert"; AFAIK it is the program that does the most to turn a sequence of command-line arguments into an imperative scripting "language"
- touisteur 4y agoYou can built pretty darn complex things with just imagemagick command-line, between the max command line size and combining several intermediate pictures. I used to do complex dashboards, system architectural diagrams, with just bash functions calling in imagemagick. Now if you don't have imagemagick, rsvg-convert will do, just remember your svg :-).
- touisteur 4y agoAlso I thought this crown of command-line as DSL was ffmpeg's?
- touisteur 4y agoSorry, I was thinking qemu...
- grumbel 4y agoThe thing that weirds me out the most with ffmpeg is that they have input and output flipped. Input needs a flag (-i), while output is a flag-less argument. Every other tool I know has either an output flag (-o) or takes the first argument as input and the second as output.
- RedShift1 4y agoWould love to see some screenshots of that... Sounds like the digital equivalent of hand-drawn schematics
- light_hue_1 4y agoOr ffmpeg.
- kaladin-jasnah 4y agoGStreamer also comes to mind.
