I use gm on my little radar maps that I download on BigBox. If I use IM, the same process fails after some time.

I have several radar map .geo's installed just in case the primary radar site that I use fails. Here is a stretch idea that would take some work to implement. You have three radar sites, primary, secondary, and tertiary. Primary is always used. When an image is grabbed, an MD5SUM is done on the grabbed file. At the next download time, the next file is SUMMed and compared to the previous file. If no change is noted in the sum's, the secondary site is polled.

Let me go get GM on the systems in question.  Thanks.  I have followed the
discussions, just hadn't implemented it.

You'll need some small changes to run GM functions instead of the IM
functions.  If I remember correctly you just prefix everything with
gm, so everything is the "gm" command.  Something like:

    gm convert
instead of
    convert

Man page will tell you the correct syntax.
