VIPSHEADER(1)               General Commands Manual              VIPSHEADER(1)

NAME
       vipsheader - prints information about an image file

SYNOPSIS
       vipsheader [OPTIONS ...] files ...

DESCRIPTION
       vipsheader(1) prints image header fields to stdout.


OPTIONS
       -a, --all
              Show all fields. Fields are displayed to be convenient for
              humans to read, so binary data, for example, is summarized
              rather than simply copied.


       -f FIELD, --field=FIELD
              Print value of FIELD from image header. Fields are printed in a
              way suitable for programs to understand, so, for example, binary
              data is base64-encoded and printed as a stream of characters.

              The special field name getext prints the VIPS extension block:
              the XML defining the image metadata. You can alter this, then
              reattach with vipsedit(1).


EXAMPLES
        $ vipsheader -f Xsize ~/pics/*.v
        1024
        1279
        22865
        1
        256
