Getting comments from images with ImageMagick?

[dmorin at lear.morinfamily.com (Duane Morin)]

Hi All,

I can find plenty of pages dedicated to how to set the comment/label of an 
image using ImageMagick's "mogrify" command, but does this suite of 
command line tools have a way to extract this value?  I'm working on 
something that produces XML meta data describing an album, and was 
entering in the descriptions by hand until the resident photographer here 
said "Put the description in the jpg when you make them."  I can do that, 
I just don't know what tool to call to get it back out in order to create 
my metadata.  "identify" doesn't seem to want to do it, and that would 
have been the logical choice.
