Re: Trouble with Mac Installation

Here's what I did:I downloaded
ImageMagick-universal-apple-darwin8.11.0.tar.gz for Mac OS 10.4.
The instructions on the ImageMagick site say to enter tar xvfz
ImageMagick-universal-apple-darwin9.2.0.tar.gz

I substituted in the name of the file I downloaded, which is
ImageMagick-powerpc-apple-darwin8.11.0.tar.  I also removed the z, since
Safari automatically unarchived it.
I entered export MAGICK_HOME="graphics/ImageMagick-6.3.9"
Then: export PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/bin:$PATH"
And finally: export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH="$MAGICK_HOME/lib"

I then typed convert logo: logo.gif, and got the message: -bash: convert:
command not found.

I followed the instructions given on the website exactly.  Is there
something I'm missing?

Thanks
