I just installed GraphicsMagick on my MacBook using macports via Porticus - took about 20 minutes for it and dependencies - ended up with .dylib's and .a's in /opt/local/lib/ - I'm not sure what else (if anything) other than those would be necessary.
Thanks for taking the trouble. Big library!
Windows searches first the app directory, then the PATH values, then /windows/system32. The cool thing is I can just lob all my DLLs into the app folder and not worry about (a) conflicts or (b) learning how to use an installer (not that that would be the end of the world).
Does the Mac have a similar search sequence? I heard on the wiki it was customary for Mac apps to just "install" by copying a directory.
GM is a mystery, and their list was silent. One theory was about COM registration, even tho I am using FFI. Anyway, perhaps on the Mac if we /can/ just toss dylibs in the app directory it will work on the Mac where it did not on Windows.
Thx again, kt
