+fbv (image viewer for framebuffer console)
+
+fbv (FrameBuffer Viewer) is a simple program to view pictures on
+a linux framebuffer device. In 2000, when fbv was created, there
+were no other suitable programs performing the same task, so the
+authors decided to follow the rule: 'If you need a tool - write
+it yourself!' :-)
