Help With Installation - display: unable to open X server:

Post by stingerman »

I tried installed imagemagick into my windows xp computer.

When I run the

Code: Select all

$magick> convert logo: logo.gif 

$magick> identify logo.gif 

$magick> display logo.gif
test. after display logo.gif I get: display: unable to open X server: @display.c/DisplayImageCommand/419(no such file or directory).

Likewise, whever I type the

Code: Select all

$magick> 
I get an error, not recognized as an internal or external command etc etc.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

*however if I type

Code: Select all

c:\> logo.gif
the logo appears in my browser. Kinda confused here.
