unable to open x server in windows xp

Post by yoniekai »

im having a problem with the command line display, and the display() function as well. when i use the command line it says "unable to open x server no such file or directory". im confused as to why windows cant use its own shell? or am i lacking arguments? also in magick++,
Magick::Image myImage.display() doesnt work. how can i use these functions?

display is an X server program. you will need to find some other display type program instead.
