%  ChannelFxImage() applies a channel expression to the specified image.  The
%  expression consists of one or more channels, either mnemonic or numeric (e.g.
%  red, 1), separated by actions as follows:
%
%    <=>     exchange two channels (e.g. red<=>blue)
%    =>      copy one channel to another channel (e.g. red=>green)
%    =       assign a constant value to a channel (e.g. red=50%)
%    ,       write new image channels in the specified order (e.g. red, green)
%    |       add a new output image for the next set of channel operations
%    ;       move to the next input image for the source of channel data
%
%  For example, to create 3 grayscale images from the red, green, and blue
%  channels of an image, use:
%
%    -channel-fx "red; green; blue"
%
%  A channel without an operation symbol implies separate (i.e, semicolon).
%
%  The format of the ChannelFxImage method is:
%
%      Image *ChannelFxImage(const Image *image,const char *expression,
%        ExceptionInfo *exception)
%
%  A description of each parameter follows:
%
%    o image: the image.
%
%    o expression: A channel expression.
%
%    o exception: return any errors or warnings in this structure.
