You could just use dwm with - an open editor (scripting window for commands) - an image viewer (like [fm]eh; the image buffer) - (a terminal to run the script on the imagefile) The mouse macros/actions would be missing with that approach though. I was thinking about a simple GUI program displaying images which prints the dimensions of selections you make with it using a mouse. Those dimensions could then easily be plugged into ImageMagick for scripting. Doing image processing using a text-based interface exclusively seems quite hard. This is one of the rare cases where GUIs and mouse control actually make the most sense.
