fastiv

fastiv is a fast image viewer, supporting BMP, PNG, GIF, JPEG, and optionally RAW and SVG pictures, or whatever gdk-pixbuf loads. Currently, it’s very basic.

Non-goals

• fancy UI—​the focus is on speed of use first, colour accuracy second

• memory efficiency, though preloading can cause some pressure

• portability to non-UNIXy systems

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.
