Hallöchen!
I have to extract the dimensions of many bitmap files. An old Bash
script did it with ImageMagick's "display -ping ...". "-ping" means
that it extracts the image dimensions efficiently. I suspect it
simply doesn't read the image itself.
Now the Bash script has been transformed into Python+PIL. Is there
a way to get the dimensions equally efficient here, or does the PIL
even do this optimisation implicitly since I never access the image
bitmap itself? ceter
Thank you!
Tschö,
Torsten.
