Rolf Schroedter provides this example of the extension:

 # Load the tclMagick module
 #
 load TclMagick.dll

 # Create wand & draw objects
 #
 set wand [magick::wand create]
 set draw [magick::draw create]

 # Load & enlarge a PNG
 #
 $wand ReadImage sample.png
 $wand ResizeImage 500 500 cubic
 # Draw a red "Tcl/Tk" rotated by 45<B0>
 #
 $draw push graph
     $draw SetStrokeWidth 1
     $draw SetStrokeColorString "red"
     $draw SetFillColorString "red"
     $draw SetFontSize 18
     $draw Annotation -97 170 "Tcl/Tk"
 $draw pop graph
 $draw Rotate -45

 $wand DrawImage $draw

 # Write the image in different file formats
 #
 $wand WriteImage sample.jpg
 $wand WriteImage sample.gif
 $wand WriteImage sample.pdf

 # Delete wand & draw objects
 #
 magick::draw delete $draw
 magick::wand delete $wand

This extension is tracking an unstable version of ImageMagick (CVS, basically). I have an updated version for the latest out of CVS that now also compiles on Linux. Hopefully, TclMagick will be included in ImageMagick itself at some point. - davidw
