Randall Meadows Helped me and I came up with
NSFileManager *fm = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
int i;
NSArray *folders = [fm directoryContentsAtPath:@"/"];
for (i=0;i<[folders count];i++) {
NSString *folder = [folders objectAtIndex:i];
if ([folder hasPrefix:@"ImageMagick"]) {
ImageMagick = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"/%@/bin/
convert",folder];
if ([fm fileExistsAtPath:ImageMagick]) {
return YES;
}
}
}
ImageMagick = @"";
return NO;
With his example.

Hello, I'm new to cocoa so any help will be appreciated.
I'm needing my application to find out if ImageMagick is
installed. It is usually installed in the root directory(/) and it
has the name of ImageMagick-6.3.8.
Any sensible installation will NOT be there. 3rd party command line
stuff should go to /usr/local/bin, with the variants from fink
defaulting to /sw/bin and from dports to an customizable directory.
Basically, the installed binaries should be in the path, and the
shell should be able to locate it via the 'which' command.
So one solution would be to us NSTask to open an shell and locate
ImageMagick.
