Most file formats are supported, and the +thumbnails used are compatible with xv, zgv, and the Gimp. It can also +be used with `xzgv file(s)', to effectively bypass the file selector. +For more on how xzgv works and how to use it, do `info xzgv' or `man +xzgv' once it's installed. + +xzgv differs from other picture viewers for X in that it uses one +window for both the file selector and viewer, it (unlike xv) allows +both scrolling and fit-to-window methods of viewing large pictures, +and it (unlike xv and some others) doesn't ever mangle the picture's +aspect ratio without you telling it to. + +It also provides extensive keyboard support; if you prefer using the +keyboard, this is almost certainly the best viewer for you. But it +doesn't skimp on the mousey stuff, either. |
