ImageMagick on Mac

Zones:

Mac OS X, Apple Programming

Tags:

mac, imagemagick

I followed the manual install description to ImageMagick on http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#macosx , but when i try to run it I get this:

pc23:/ bo$ cd picture
pc23:/picture bo$ ls
Stranden.jpg
pc23:/picture bo$ convert stranden.jpg -resize 24x24% converted.jpg
dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/X11/lib/libXext.6.dylib
Referenced from: /library/ImageMagick-6.4.2/bin/convert
Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap
pc23:/picture bo$

and when i restart the machine i get "command not found" and most type all in again. I will use it together with PHP so it is important that I do not need to type all commands again after a restart.

The machine is running Intel MAC OS X 10.4
