remove 'b' from filesize meta-data

Post by imager »

The 'format' command has the option to output the filesize (%e). How to change the output, removing the suffix 'B'?

I presume you mean %b and not %e

In usix, use

convert logo: -format "%b" info: | sed -n 's/B//p'

I don't know how to do that in Windows. See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/windows/
