* FILE: join.c
* DESCRIPTION:
* This example demonstrates how to "wait" for thread completions by using
* the Pthread join routine. Threads are explicitly created in a joinable
* state for portability reasons. Use of the pthread_exit status argument is
* also shown. Compare to detached.c

Description

This simple script will take a picture of a whiteboard and use parts of the ImageMagick library with sane defaults to clean it up tremendously.

The script is here:

#!/bin/bash
convert $1 -morphology Convolve DoG:15,100,0 -negate -normalize -blur 0x1 -channel RBG -level 60%,91%,0.1 $2
