Hi Sean, Ruben,

thanks. I’m using macOS Catalina 10.15.6.

I’m wondering though how I would achieve getting the libheic delegate into the current IM 6 in macports.
Also I don’t want to use jpeg since the target is png. heic->png

The CLI parser has been rewritten and following the previous CLI parameters order will not work. It is however possible to invoke the previous parser using "magick convert" or "magick composite" for example.
