9 gliv [OPTIONS]... [FILES]...
10
12 gliv uses gdk-pixbuf to load images and OpenGL to render them. It
13 allows to do some moving, rotating, zooming and slide show.
14
16 The options are first set to their default values, "off" for flags,
17 then read either from ~/.glivrc or /etc/glivrc or a configuration file
18 specified on the command line, and finally read from the command line.
19 Omitting the argument for an option that takes an "on|off" argument
20 (flags) is like giving it "on", so --foo is the same as --foo=on if foo
21 is an on|off flag.
22 -h, --help
24 Print help and exit.
25 -V, --version
27 Print version and exit.
28 -a, --add-all[=on|off]
30 Add all files in the directory. With this option, when you open
31 a file on the command line or with the open dialog, all others
32 files in the directory are added as well.
33 -R, --recursive[=on|off]
35 Recursive directory traversal. If gliv tries to load a direcory,
36 it will also load every image all its subdirectories.
37 -S, --sort[=on|off]
39 Show images in sorted order. The images list will be sorted
40 before the slide show.
41 -s, --shuffle[=on|off]
43 Show images in random order. The images list will be shuffled
44 before the slide show.
45 -F, --force-load[=on|off]
47 Try to load every file. When loading a file, the loader is cho‐
48 sen according to the filename extension in order to optimize the
49 loading time. If the extension is unknown, the file is ignored,
50 with this option gliv will always try to load the file.
51 -C, --client[=on|off]
53 Connect to an already running gliv. With this option, gliv will
54 open the files passed in the arguments in the gliv server win‐
55 dow. It can also be used with the -0 option. The gliv server is
56 the latest launched gliv or the one which has been chosen using
57 the Options menu.
58 -e, --build-menus[=on|off]
60 No images menu at startup. Disabling the images menus creation
61 at startup makes it faster, especially with many files on the
62 command line.
63 -g, --glivrc[=FILE]
65 Use this configuration file or none. Specify it to disable load‐
66 ing of the rc file. With a filename as argument it will use it
67 as a configuration file.
68 -w, --slide-show[=on|off]
70 Start the slide show immediately. This way you will not have to
71 start it manually from the menu.
72 -0, --null[=on|off]
74 Read null-terminated filenames. This can be used with "find
75 -print0" or with "tr '\n' '\0'" when you have a very long list
76 of filenames to pass to gliv. Unlike xargs(1) it allows an
77 unlimited number of filenames.
78 -o, --collection[=FILE]
80 Output a collection. With this option, gliv creates a collection
81 from the loaded files and outputs it to stdout or in the speci‐
82 fied file.
83 -G, --geometry=GEOMETRY
85 Initial window geometry. This option can be used to specify the
86 position and dimension of the gliv window. It expects a geometry
87 argument in the XParseGeometry(3X11) format like: 640x480+20-30
88 for example.
89
91 Starting with version 1.8, gliv supports a file format called "GLiv
92 collection". It contains an images list and the associated thumbnails,
93 this way, when you load a collection the images menus rebuilding is
94 faster since it does not have to make thumbnails.
95 gliv supports also transparent decompression, so the collections can be
96 compressed in bzip2, gzip or compress(1) provided that you have the
97 corresponding decompressor.

132 around the window center.
133 Your mouse wheel (if supported) will zoom the image and switch it when
135 you press the button.
136 You can also zoom by dragging the mouse vertically while holding Shift
138 and the first button.
139 Space and Backspace act like n and p.
141 Draw a rectangle with the third button and gliv will zoom in it.
