NOTE: Quote your variable expansions unless you are certain they will never contain spaces or other characters that will be interpreted by the shell. In particular, although you hard-code INK to a known pathname without spaces, all your uses of ~ may expand to a path containing spaces.

| Nov 19, 2015 at 20:05 | comment | added | user3439894 | Why in the last line of the code you posted you're copying the file to the Trash? IMO It makes no sense to copy the file to the Trash. | |

| Nov 19, 2015 at 19:52 | comment | added | Jonathan | @Mark I believe 'convert' came with ImageMagick which is located at /Users/*MY USERNAME*/ImageMagick-6.9.0-3 | |
