Before doing the install if I rename the current binary to, say, 
convert-o, is that enough or is it drawing upon other folders of files 
that must also be renamed? What about identify which I commonly use and 
some of the other commands?

What would be an example of a favored location, perhaps /bin, as in 
"./configure --disable-openmp --prefix /bin"? Would this lead to any 
conflicts with shared library files or anything else?

server% tar xvfz ImageMagick.tar.gz
server% cd ImageMagick-6.6.1
server% ./configure --disable-openmp
server% make
server% make install

If I do the above is it going to overwrite the current install or prompt 
me to uninstall first?

Sorry about all the questions, but this is not what I do.

Thx again, Bob
