Poor choice of filename: convert.exe

[magick]

Under Windows type

• rename convert.exe imconvert.exe

Problem solved.

We have not considered changing the convert program name. Namespace clashes occur all the time and we want the Windows command to match that of Mac OS X, Linux, etc. Instead, the solution to a namespace clash is to rename one of the programs or use an absolute path such as c:\Program Files\ImageMagick-6.4.5\bin\convert.exe. The default behavior for the ImageMagick Windows install is to override the seldom used Windows convert program such that ImageMagick convert is the default, i.e.

• convert logo: logo.png

launches the ImageMagick convert program.
