# Enable gzip. Highly recommending for best peformance
gzip on;
gzip_comp_level 6;
gzip_types text/html text/css text/javascript application/json application/javascript application/x-javascript;

# By default, do not set expire headers
expires 0;

# Set expires header for console CSS and JS.
# These files are timestamped with each new release, so it is safe to cache them agressively.

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"
