That is completely beyond the scope of ImageMagick.

X Windows was developed as a network transparent method of displaying images onto the users terminal, even when they are
not sitting in front of the machine on which they are runnign the command. It is THE display method used by pretty well all non-Microsoft environments.

The Errors you are actually seeing it the program complaining that it can find the location and security checks needed to display on an X windows display (server), basically because you are not running one!

Windows does not use X windows. However you can download and run a X server for Windows, which will then let you run X window commands on that machine or others, so that it display on that X server.
