Fix the remaining Windows build error 
Linux has st_mtim (and an st_mtime macro),
macOS has st_mtimespec (and an st_mtime macro),
Windows has just st_mtime.

GFileInfo would be another option, though it seems unnecessary.

fiv

fiv is a slightly unconventional, general-purpose image browser and viewer for Linux (that said, macOS and Windows ports are possible).

Screenshot of both the browser and the viewer

Features

  • Uses a compact thumbnail view, helping you browse collections comfortably.

  • Supports BMP, (A)PNG, GIF, TGA, JPEG, WebP directly, plus optionally raw photos, HEIC, AVIF, SVG, X11 cursors and TIFF, or whatever your gdk-pixbuf modules manage to load.

  • Employs high-performance file format libraries: Wuffs and libjpeg-turbo.

  • Makes use of 30-bit X.org visuals, whenever it’s possible and appropriate.

  • Has a notion of pages, and tries to load all included content within files.

  • Can keep the zoom and position when browsing, to help with comparing zoomed-in images.

Explicit non-goals

  • Editing—​that’s what editors are for, be it GIMP or Rawtherapee; nothing beyond the most basic of adjustments is desired.

  • Following the latest GNOME HIG to the letter—​header bars are deliberately avoided, for their general user hostility.

  • Memory efficiency is secondary to both performance and development effort.

Aspirations

Show colours as accurately as hardware allows. Open everything. Be fast. Not necessarily in this order.

Packages

Regular releases are sporadic. git master should be stable enough. You can get a package with the latest development version from Archlinux’s AUR.

Building and Running

Build dependencies: Meson, pkg-config
Runtime dependencies: gtk+-3.0, glib>=2.64, pixman-1, shared-mime-info, libturbojpeg, libwebp
Optional dependencies: lcms2, LibRaw, librsvg-2.0, xcursor, libheif, libtiff, ExifTool, resvg (unstable API, needs to be requested explicitly)

$ git clone --recursive https://git.janouch.name/p/fiv.git
$ meson builddir
$ cd builddir
$ meson compile

Considering the vast amount of dynamically-linked dependencies, do not attempt direct installations. To test the program, help it find its custom thumbnailer:

$ PATH=$(pwd):$PATH ./fiv

The lossless JPEG cropper is intended to be invoked from a context menu.

Documentation

For information concerning usage, refer to the user guide, which can be invoked from within the program by pressing F1.
