Lucky you are! Here, with an i-Installer installed ImageMagick, "man  
convert" yields:

> convert(1)

With "convert -help" I get the info about "FILES AND FORMATS":

but not the one about EPS2 etc.

Is this a version problem, or some consequence of the install  
procedure (i-Installer vs Fink vs DarwinPorts vs compiling from source)?
