In the case of Windows, it didn't start with gs as the problem.
It was convert that wasn't working at first, and in that case,
it would be very difficult to tell what's going on in Windows,
because windows already has a convert command in dos.
In that case you're hooped, because something executes, it's
just the wrong something!
