Hi guys
I have followed the MacPosts install procedure but my results using your test are

-bash: magick: command not found
Ys-2-work:~ admin$ identify logo.gif

What's my next step here?

I know nothing about Macs, but what version of IM did you install? v6 doesn't have a "magick" program (this is a v7 program), which might explain why you don't have it.

[fmw42]

MacPorts, last I knew, only had an IM 6 version. If you want an IM 7 version, then you can get that from Homebrew. Or install from ImageMagick binary at http://www.imagemagick.org/script/download.php#macosx

Hi guys thanks for your replies
After installing Macports I installed from this command sudo port install ImageMagick. Unfortunately I cant tell you which version I installed from that command, but I will look into getting IM version 7 from Homebrew, cheers

[fmw42]

You can tell which version by using

convert -version for IM 6

or

magick -version for IM 7

If you installed from MacPorts, it is likely IM 6

At the end of the IM7 install with home-brew
Pouring imagemagick-7.0.7-15.high_sierra.bottle.tar.gz
/usr/local/Cellar/imagemagick/7.0.7-15: 1,522 files, 23.2MB
I get this,
display: delegate library support not built-in '' (X11) @ error/display.c/DisplayImageCommand/1900.

is taht a good result or are there other tasks I must consider?

[fmw42]

Macs do not come with X11 built-in any more (as opposed to Xcode). X11 is needed to display images. Download Xquartz. See https://www.xquartz.org. Once that is installed, you should be able to use

Code: Select all

magick display logo:

To display the logo: image. Note for IM 7 you must preface display and other tools with magick, except for convert. Magick replaces convert.

where logo: is an internal IM image that comes installed. The colon is part of the name. See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/forma ... tin-images

OK Im moving along slowly but surely
I have installed Xquartz and it is working however Im still faced with the following

display: delegate library support not built-in '' (X11) @ error/display.c/DisplayImageCommand/1900.

where do I go from here? and thanks in advance for all your help on this, Im a newbie in this space

[fmw42]

First launch Xquartz and wait for it to finish loading. Then open a terminal window and type:

Code: Select all

magick display wizard:

All commands such as display, identify, mogrify, montage all need to be prefaced with magick. The only one that does not is convert. Magick replace convert.

What happens with

Code: Select all

magick logo: logo.gif
magick logo.gif logo.png
magick logo.png logo.jpg

Do those work?

What about

Code: Select all

magick identify wizard:

[philysgdy]

magick logo: logo.gif
magick logo.gif logo.png
magick logo.png logo.jpg
I get
display: delegate library support not built-in '' (X11) @ error/display.c/DisplayImageCommand/1900.
and here is the result of
Ys-2-work:~ admin$ magick identify wizard:
wizard:=>WIZARD GIF 480x640 480x640+0+0 8-bit sRGB 256c 99674B 0.000u 0:00.000

Am I getting closer?

Do you have X listed in your

Are you saying that

does not work and give a message about X11 not built in?

It doesn't look like I have x

Yes I have Xcode 9.2 from Apple, that was how I got MacPorts to get IM6, but then I installed Home-brew to get IM7 and then Xquartz
and yes correct me if Im wrong but as I read it
So can you advise me how I include x as a delegate
Thanks in advance

[philysgdy]

I found a URL which has the correct dependencies required http://brewformulas.org/Imagemagick should I brew uninstall and brew install

[fmw42]

I know little about Homebrew. I mostly use MacPorts to install all my delegates and then install ImageMagick from source.

But if things are not working with your install, then it would be worthwhile to try following some other well-tried instructions. So, yes, I would uninstall and then re-install.
