         -version             print version information
       By default, the image format of `file' is determined by its magic  num-
       ber.   To  specify a particular image format, precede the filename with
       an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify  the  image
       type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps).  Specify 'file' as '-' for
       standard input or output.
       Two images are considered similar if their difference according to  the
       specified metric and fuzz value is 0, with the exception of the normal-
       ized cross correlation metric (NCC), where two  images  are  considered
       similar  when their normalized cross correlation is 1. The default met-
       ric is NCC.
       The compare program returns 2 on error, 0 if the images are similar, or
       a value between 0 and 1 if they are not similar.
