hi!

we noticed that recent version of IM returned the %b format with a B at the end:

Code: Select all

identify -format "%b" 134681.jpg
4711796B
Version: ImageMagick 6.6.1-9
this was not the case on 6.5.8-8

is it a bug or a feature ? :)

Its a features. It indicates the value is in bytes.

i didn't find anything about this change in the changelog, did I miss something ?

Nope, in this particular instance the value is always in bytes.
