<p class="text-center"><a href="animate.html#usage">Example Usage</a> • <a href="animate.html#options">Option Summary</a></p>
<p class="lead magick-description">Use the <code>animate</code> program to animate an image sequence on any X server. See <a href="command-line-processing.html">Command Line Processing</a> for advice on how to structure your <code>animate</code> command or see below for example usages of the command.</p>
<h2 class="magick-header"><a id="usage"></a>Example Usage</h2>
<p>We list a few examples of the <code>animate</code> command here to illustrate its usefulness and ease of use. To get started, lets animate an image sequence in the GIF format:</p>
<pre>
animate movie.gif
</pre>
<p>To animate a directory of JPEG images, use:</p>
<pre>
animate *.jpg
</pre>
<p>You can find additional examples of using <code>animate</code> in <a href="http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/basics/#animate">Examples of ImageMagick Usage</a>.</p>
<h2 class="magick-header"><a id="options"></a>Option Summary</h2>
<p>The <code>animate</code> command recognizes these options. Click on an option to get more details about how that option works.</p>
