Hi Bryan, As far as I know, IM works with LC the same way it worked with Revolution 4.5 and earlier, but I'm not sure that it is still supported.
You might be able to write the result of a shell command to stdout, but there have always been problems with LiveCode, shell and stdout. It is probably much easier to read the file created by the shell command. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Use Color Converter to convert CMYK, RGB, RAL, XYZ, H.Lab and other colour spaces. http://www.color-converter.com On 10 jun 2012, at 17:43, Bryan McCormick wrote: > I am curious about using ImageMagick on OSX with LC.
