I moved my BBS over to a newer PC and I noticed my sixel gallery no longer
produces images for the viewer. It worked fine on the old laptop I ran my BBS
on for 16 years but after the move over to the newer PC it no longer sends the
output to view. I am sure it is something obvious I am missing. Does anyone do
anything special with PATH? I have
c:\sbbs\ImageMagick-7.1.1-Q16-HDRI\magick.exe in my windows system path like on
the laptop. What else should be added so it can find the output? I include my
log and setting data for your review,

settings.ini

path_to_im_conv = "c:\sbbs\ImageMagick-7.1.1-Q16-HDRI\magick.exe"
temp_sixel_path = c:\sbbs\xtrn\sixelgallery
scale = true
scale_max_width = 640
scale_max_height = 370

The paths and settings above work perfectly on the laptop even now. Not on the
newer PC.

Have a great day,
