Pim, a Python image viewer with vim-like bindings

Hello, after seeing alterecco's Visible, I decided to try my own hand at an image viewer. Including (poor) comments, Pim - http://github.com/aeosynth/Pim - is currently just over 300 lines. There's only one command-line option, -rR to enable/disable randomizing; everything else is configured by editing the __init__ function at the top of the file.

Features:
Keyboard control
Slideshow
Zoom
Fullscreen
Remember last position
Randomization

Known Issues:
Scrollbars sometimes appear when they shouldn't. A temporary fix is to fullscreen/unfullscreen and play with zoom levels. Here's my plea for help on the gtk forums.

Hi,

I did some modifications:
Toggle between manual scale (your version) and auto-scale (fit image size to window) with 'a'
go to next/previous image with Shift+J/K
and minor changes

You can find my versions at:

Nice work,
runs just fine and does what it's supposed to do.

@thorsten Nice changes, the auto-scaling is very useful!
