 Sorry, I thought you'd already have it, it's part of ImageMagick which is
a pretty useful [suite of] tool[s] for doing just about anything with the
images from the command line.

 I'm not so sure about this, the "Authorization required" looks like the
real cause of the error. Could you be running these commands from different
chroots/not using the same home directory? If both processes use the same
~/.Xauthority file this shouldn't happen, AFAIK.

 Yes, again, I understand this. It's just something you might find useful
in an emergency.

 Yes, just to confirm, this is what I tested with. I also tested both with
the local X server and a remote one (which I typically use), but the tests
just stubbornly work fine for me no matter what.
