==== ImageMagick on X ====
The quickest way to get ImageMagick running on OS X for Greenstone.

  - [[http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/#imagemagick|Download ImageMagick]]
  - open .dmg
  - install package
  - open term
  - type sudo bash
  - edit /etc/profile to include /usr/local/bin in the path (you will have to use and editor in term - try vi or emacs) so it looks something like this PATH="/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin" 
  - save and exit 
  - Restart the GLI in a new term window.

No more 'imagemagick not installed' complaints!

Happy image collection building.

PS your ///etc/profile// should have these two lines:

PATH="/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin"

export PATH
