We all know how tedious is can be to deal with long paths on the command line, and having to switch between typing in stuff, then launching a viewer to see the resulting output. So if you need to quickly figure out some adequate command line parameters, here's a little tool I just wrote, that you might find useful:

ImageMagickTester.exe ... Requires .NET 3.5

Simply load an image, enter some ImageMagick parameters, and press enter to see the result.

The instructions are a bit sparce and I was presented with a window with two boxes. I posted the path to a photo into the top box and pressed enter and all I had was an error "convert.exe: no decode delegate ............."

I tried adding some options and get error "convert.exe: no decode delegate ............. error/constitute.c/ReadImage/533"

I have .NET 3.5 SP1 and ImageMagick-6.7.6-Q16 installed.

Fair enough, here's a quick guide:

1) Choose File / Open and load an image
2) Type this text string into the text area: -level 30,60%
3) Press Enter. The image should now change, and get more contrast.

Other text strings give other results. I've added a few examples here.
