how to test imagemagick support in emacs

[claudius...@gmail.com]

Hello,

Is there a simple way to test if imagemagick support is working in my emacs install? I need to ensure that to track down a problem I have with org-mode with getting inline image scaling to work. As far as I know this function is based on imagemagick.

I'm using emacs 24.3-177.1 on openSUSE 13.1 (64 bit).

>ldd emacs | grep Magick

shows:

libMagickWand-6.Q16.so.1 => /usr/lib64/libMagickWand-6.Q16.so.1 (0x00007f396a498000)
libMagickCore-6.Q16.so.1 => /usr/lib64/libMagickCore-6.Q16.so.1 (0x00007f3969ff9000)

Thank you for any pointers!
Claudius

I don't know much about it. AFAICT you need to eval something like

(setq image-type-header-regexps '((".*" . imagemagick)))

to be able to resize images in image-mode with imagemagick (for example,
from the "Image" menu). If resizing works for you when visiting an
image file, I guess your imagemagick support is ok.
