Regarding a common ID which is printed by messages produced by 
GraphicsMagick, each subordinate command (e.g. "convert") registers 
its name so that it should be used in warning and error reports.  For 
example, the warning message may be reported as being from
"gm convert".

In the software, the identifier to use is managed via the 
SetClientName() and GetClientName() functions.  This allows library 
users to assign their own program's name for use in messages.  The 
default client name (before SetClientName() is invoked) is "Magick".
Perhaps it might be useful if a command option were provided to allow 
the user to specify identifying text to use in any error messages.
