Amazing applications that others may not be aware of

Yep, Imagemagick is a must have for me!

I didn't know what imagemagick did until midway through college I started using Blackbox as my WM exclusively. I had a heck of a time figuring out how to do something relatively simple like display a background image. I had it enabled on my Blackbox config file and all the paths were correct. Turns out the missing piece was imagemagick.

It's also been useful to me in the past for converting one image format to another, en masse, since it's shell script friendly.

feh is another good. It's an image viewer, but I use it quite often for setting backgrounds:
