'convert' exit status is zero (success) when arguments are not understood
If you pass too few arguments to convert: convert rubbishrubbish it prints help, but exits with status code 0, indicating success. This is obviously really bad behaviour, especially for scripts which rely on error codes. So far I've only found this happening when you fail to pass enough arguments ...
