What do you mean "to no avail"? You should be able to run the command  
without any args and get the usage information. Is this working for  
you? For example, this is what it looks like when I run convert:
$ /usr/local/bin/convert
Version: ImageMagick 6.2.8 07/18/06 Q8 http://www.imagemagick.org
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2006 ImageMagick Studio LLC

Usage: convert [options ...] file [ [options ...] file ...]  
[options ...] file

Where options include:
   -adaptive-sharpen geometry
                        adaptively sharpen pixels; increase effect  
near edges
   -adjoin              join images into a single multi-image file
   -affine matrix       affine transform matrix
   -annotate geometry text
[many more opts here...]
