If you've got the binary working then all you need to do is alter the $PATH variable in your ~/.profile to include the path to convert (and any other required). Don't use export to do this –– it is only intended for temporary changes. Instead, actually modify the .profile file which you will find in /Users/<your_user_name>/ This is all basic shell stuff... so it sounds like you need to introduce yourself to the linux sub-system behind OS X! I can highly recommend the O'Reilly pocket guide to Linux... and (of course) google. If you're scared of that then use macports.. which does it all for you, although you might not get the bleeding edge version of the binary.
