Hi.

The imread() call on the Macports download of Octave has been broken for
years. It is missing a call to InitializeMagic().

One can fix this by building Octave from scratch, but I have done this once
and I know how hard it can be. I do not do enough work on the Mac to justify
doing a huge effort, so I have a workaround. However, it would be neater if
I could share my stuff with other people who use Macs with use the Macports
binary.

It struck me last night that I could stick the missing InitializeMagic()
call into a .oct file. This isn't a great solution but you only need to run
it once, and you could stick it into your octave startup sequence. So, I
wrote an InitializeMagick.cpp file containing the missing call. I have tried
linking in the Magick++ library using the mkoctfile -l option, but so far no
luck.

Is this capable of working? As it's Friday, is anyone bored enough to have a
go?

Cheers.

I'm building Octave using Macports for dependencies.  I don't see the problem you describe.
