…d broken example Ran every example in this doc live on Easley. The "imagemagick module unavailable" callout was stale (dated ~June 23, promised a fix "within a day") - module load imagemagick works fine now, so removed the callout. Also found the file-conversion example itself was broken independent of that: ImageMagick's convert can't turn .csv into .txt, it only understands image formats. Replaced it with a real png->jpg conversion example and tested it. Also verified: gzip/gunzip compression, single-node MATLAB+parallel (4 CSVs produced), the --sshloginfile passwordless-SSH-between-nodes setup, and both the 2-node matlab_parallel.slurm and python_parallel.slurm batch scripts - confirmed via GNU Parallel's joblog (task start times and hostnames) that these genuinely run distributed across both allocated nodes rather than silently falling back to one node.

the "imagemagick module unavailable" callout was stale (self-dated ~june 23, said a fix was coming "within a day"). module load imagemagick works fine now, so removed it.
found imagemagick example was broken, imagemagick's convert only understands image formats, so convert {}.csv {}.txt errors out every time (no decode delegate for this image format 'CSV'). replaced it with a real png to jpg conversion and tested it end to end.
