No -encypher option with convert

Post by bansheeboyb »

I am attempting to use the -encypher flag to scramble an image. But every time I attempt it i get the error "unrecognized option `-encipher' "

I am doing it exactly like the example on this page,

http://www.imagemagick.org/script/cipher.php

Is there anything else I need to install? I noticed in the options of "convert" there is not mention of an -encipher flag.

Your version of IM may be too old. It was added according to the changelog at IM 6.3.8-6. What version are you using?

Ah ok, my version is 6.3.5.9. I guess that explains that.

Thanks!
