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

1. Download ImageMagick
2. open .dmg
3. install package
4. open term
5. type sudo bash
6. 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"
7. save and exit
8. 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
