Test that it worked

# imagemagick ships w/ a few default images
# logo is the variable name of a built-in image
# this cmd saves a new file to your working directory called logo.gif
convert logo: logo.gif

# print some stats about the image
identify logo.gif

# display the image in an XQuartz X11 server
# THIS FAILS

By default, the image format of 'file' is determined by its magic
number.  To specify a particular image format, precede the filename
with an image format name and a colon (i.e. ps:image) or specify the
image type as the filename suffix (i.e. image.ps).  Specify 'file' as
'-' for standard input or output.
