 Here is an abbreviated transcript of my experience, from before to after
 installing ImageMagick via MacPorts:

 {{{
 $ which convert
 /usr/local/bin/convert
 $ which mogrify
 $ mogrify
 -bash: mogrify: command not found
 $ sudo port install imagemagick
 [... many lines removed for conciseness, but no errors reported ...]
 $ which mogrify
 /opt/local/bin/mogrify
 $ which convert
 /usr/local/bin/convert
 }}}


 And here is an abbreviated transcript of my expected experience:

 {{{
 $ which convert
 /usr/local/bin/convert
 $ which mogrify
 $ mogrify
 -bash: mogrify: command not found
 $ sudo port install imagemagick
 [... many lines removed for conciseness, but no errors reported ...]
 $ which mogrify
 /opt/local/bin/mogrify
 $ which convert
 /opt/local/bin/convert
 }}}


 Is this a genuine bug, or should I adjust my expectations? Either way, how
 can I best make /opt/local/bin/convert become the default `convert`
 command?

 NB. http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#macosx does seem
 to give the impression that `sudo port install` is all that's needed in
 order to make the MacPorts port of ImageMagick fully ready for use.
