Update 2024

In 10 years the top command did not work on my Windws 11 system ;

But it only required only one change that was Gaussian blur option.

"c:\Program Files\ImageMagick-7.1.1-Q16-HDRI\magick.exe" -size 1080x130 xc:transparent -font arial -pointsize 72 -fill "\#cccccc" -annotate 0x180+12+80 "Still Rocking in 2024" -gaussian-blur 0x2 -stroke black -strokewidth 1 -fill "\#ff3600" -stroke black -strokewidth 1 -annotate 0x0+12+55 "Still Rocking in 2024" -draw "line 0,68 570,68" banner-2024.png
