ImageMagick is good but it took me *2 weeks* to finally make a an
error free compilation on our SunE450 (grrrrr...) . For the info of
non-ImageMagick users, ImageMagick depends on several independent
libraries (eg jpeg, tiff, mpeg, etc) that you have to download and install
first before you hit the ./configure [OPTIONS] . The worst part is each
library has its own problem of compiling too (grrrr...). I think the
maintainer of ImageMagick should make a better autoconf/automake script.
But in the end, it is a pretty good software not only for image
manipulation but also for document preparation. I guess installing it in
linux may be easier.
