WAW! A real lesson in code development!
I would never have thought of such a complete and authoritative answer!
I'm really very grateful! I'll show your answer to some friends I think they'll be amazed!
Regarding what you suggest, it is believed that the utility "file" could be very useful.
Also find the way to not process files already modified by the script.
Unfortunately I do not know if I will succeed in the enterprise, but I try, but give me "some time" to process everything (I'm still under shok! :-))...
Regarding the environment in use you're absolutely right, I forgot to specify it, I'm in a Debian Jessie (Bourne shell), can the script work?
I'll try!
If I can complete it I would like to publish it (not for personal glory, but only to help other people like me who are looking for something like this. You must to know that my search started for a Joomla plugin that had such features, but I did not find it, and I thought it could help GNU Linux!) on GitLab, what do you think about? ;-)
Thanks again!

PUZZLE-DIFF(1) PUZZLE-DIFF(1)
NAME
puzzle-diff - Compare pictures with libpuzzle
SYNOPSIS
[-b <contrast barrier for cropping>] [-c] [-C <max cropping ratio>] [-e] [-E <similarity threshold>] [-h] [-H <max height>] [-l <lambdas>]
[-n <noise cutoff>] [-p <p ratio>] [-t] [-W <max width>] <file 1> <file 2>
DESCRIPTION
puzzle-diff compares two pictures and outputs the normalized distance.
Try puzzle-diff -h for more info.
EXAMPLES
Output distance between two images:
$ puzzle-diff pic-a-0.jpg pics-a-1.jpg
0.102286
Compare two images, exit with 10 if they look the same, exit with 20 if they don't (may be useful for scripts):
$ puzzle-diff -e pic-a-0.jpg pics-a-1.jpg
$ echo $?
10
Compute distance, without cropping and with computing the average intensity of the whole blocks:
$ puzzle-diff -p 1.0 -c pic-a-0.jpg pic-a-1.jpg
