Image viewer in arch?

I like GImageView, but it isn't in Arch. Tried building it but got some errors. Might try it sometime later again...

So, the question goes: is there a good image viewer included in Arch?

I really like qiv. But pornview is good as well.

me too :-) - this tool is excellent: it can show pics of 19000x18000px in less than 5s (gimp needs about 70s to open such big pics)

What about XV? That's not too bad, either.

Hey Zephirias, is xv in the arch repositories?   I did a search and it did not turn up.  I once tried xview thinking it was xv and was disappointed that it was not.   I used to use xv on Unix, but I have not seen it in years.

It's not in the arch's repositories... I just can't find it there too...
If you like xv only for viewing images, you may like qiv, it's very fast and shows yours images on screen fine! hehe

I thought that feh was just to set the wallpapers.
I prefer gqview just to see pictures it´s very simple

Re: Image viewer in arch?

This thread is from 2004!  There are far more recent threads about image viewers.  jonnym reopened it to pimp "his organization's" viewer.    Closing before it gets too far.
