Mac, not a problem, it's got bash. Another reason I want a 100% perl

Here's some 100% perl code to do pretty much what you want:
my $temp;
$temp = $image->Clone();
$temp->Modulate("100, 0, 0") unless $bw;
my @black = Histogram($temp);
$temp = $image->Clone();
$temp->Channel("Red");
my @red = Histogram($temp);
$temp = $image->Clone();
$temp->Channel("Green");
my @green = Histogram($temp);
$temp = $image->Clone();
$temp->Channel("Blue");
my @blue = Histogram($temp, $blackpoint, $whitepoint);
sub Histogram
{
my ($image) = @_;
my $filename = "histogram" . rand;
$image->Write("histogram:$filename");
undef $image->[0];
my $hg = new Image::Magick;
$hg->Read($filename);
unlink $filename;
return $hg
}
Maybe I just need to learn some graphics programming and understand that
HUGE array that is returned from the Histogram() method :-D
Is the Historgram() method much faster than what you have now?

And actually, computing the histogram first and then trying to extract
the channels from that...doesn't seem to work for me. I get 3 black
files :(
What do you mean by black? Do you mean every pixel is black? Or just
that there are no colored pixels?

This is from a reduced image size. That's how my program can process
100's of photos in a few minutes.
Do you resize or resample? The method you use will make a difference.
