Append doesn't accept a buffer

[Koosmann]

I'm trying to the append images together that are stored in buffers like so:

gm(firstBuffer).append(secondBuffer, true).write('appendedImage.jpg', function(...

This firstBuffer always works, but the secondBuffer is never recognized (it only works when append is passed a filepath).

Same problem, gm.append only accepts file paths. Neither buffers not streams work

gm(stream).append(stream)

When the image is written to disk only the original image stream is there

[jonathanong]

this is similar to #211. difficult to stdin multiple images as buffers

Bump. Is there any plan to fix this? If not, I'll just have to write to a temp file. I'm trying to make a sprite out of some GridFS files, would rather not involve the regular FS if I don't have to. Or I could be not lazy and try to make a PR. Meh.

@Awk34 make a pull request! If not someone else might make a PR, I've had a few people fixing bugs the past few weeks maybe one of them will pick this up.

@rwky well, that would take actually figuring out the fix for this first.. I haven't done much more than poking around the source code

I need this so badly
