fiv - Image browser and viewer
Synopsis
--------
*fiv* [_OPTION_]... [_PATH_ | _URI_]...
Description
-----------
*fiv* is a general-purpose image browser and viewer: pass it a directory path
or URI to open it for browsing, or pass an image to open it for viewing.
In case that multiple arguments are passed, they'll be opened as a virtual
directory containing all of them.
For more information concerning usage, press *F1* in the application to open
the _User Guide_.
// TODO(p): Try to merge the two, though this one focuses on command line usage.
Options
-------
*--invalidate-cache*::
Invalidate the wide thumbnail cache, removing thumbnails for files that can
no longer be found.
*--list-supported-media-types*::
Output supported media types and exit. This is used by a script to update
the list of MIME types within *fiv*'s desktop file when the list
of GdkPixbuf loaders changes.
*--browse*::
When an image is passed, start in browsing mode, and preselect that
image in its containing directory. This is used by *fiv*'s inode/directory
handler to implement the "Open Containing Folder" feature of certain
applications.
*--thumbnail*=_SIZE_::
Generate thumbnails for the first argument, in all sizes not exceeding
_SIZE_, and present the largest of them on the standard output
in an application-specific bitmap format. Available sizes follow directory
names in the _Thumbnail Managing Standard_.
*--extract-thumbnail*::
Present any embedded thumbnail of the first argument on the standard output
in an application-specific bitmap format. When both *--thumbnail*
and *--extract-thumbnail* are passed, this option takes precedence,
exiting early if successful. This is used to enhance responsivity
of thumbnail procurement.
*-V*, *--version*::
Output version information and exit.
*--help-all*::
Show the full list of options, including those provided by GTK+.
