+Argument parsing:
+  Argument long options can be abbreviated to a prefix if the abbreviation is
+  anambiguous. That is, the prefix must match a unique option.
+
+  Beware of your shell interpreting argument values as special characters (like
+  the semicolon in the CMYK;I colorspace option). If in doubt, put the argument

+
+  If you want an argument value to start with one or more minus characters, you

+  The order of non-positional arguments (all arguments other than the input
+  images) does not matter.
