Welcome to the Dark side, Ken.

Are you looking for "convert" and "identify" from the terminal?

I find it easiest to install any command line tools with either Darwin Ports (http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/) or Fink (http:// fink.sourceforge.net/). I don't know what package system fedora core uses, but DP and Fink pretty much mimic that functionality (I think, I'm not a Linux guy).

Fink has more packages available, but I find that DP works a little faster (and better in some cases).

then just "sudo port install ImageMagick" (or im, I forget) and you are good to go.

As for removing Word (which is odd to have, by the way) just toss it in the trash. There may be a little residue in ~/Documents and ~/ Library (preference files) but trashing the Application is all you typically need to do on a Mac.

Good luck!

Nate

I downloaded what i thought was the latest ImageMagick utilities for Mac
from
ftp://ftp.imagemagick.net/pub/ImageMagick/
Selected folder macintosh
Downloaded file ImageMagick-5.5.7.sit 12438kb 5/23/03 12:00.00am
The file is a binary for 30day demo of Microsoft Word.
I was shocked with MS Word opened.
Where is the current binary for Mac OSX?
How do I get this MS junk off of my system?
Thanks
Ken
