+qiv (Quick Image Viewer)
+
Quick Image Viewer (qiv) is a very small and pretty fast GDK/Imlib
image viewer. Features include zoom, maxpect, scale down, fullscreen,
brightness/contrast/gamma correction, slideshow, pan with keyboard
and mouse, rotate left/right, flip, delete (move to .qiv-trash/),
jump to image x, jump forward/backward x images, filename filter, and
you can use qiv to set your X11-Desktop background.
+
+These formats are supported by default:
+
+GIF TIFF XPM PNG PPM PNM PGM BMP JPEG SVG ICO TGA ICNS WMF[*]
+
+[*] If .wmf files won't load for you, make sure you've updated
+ Slackware recently (e.g. "slackpkg upgrade-all").
+
+Optional supported formats:
+
+Format | Optional dependenc(y|ies)
+------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
+PCX | pcx-pixbuf-loader
+------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
+PSD (PhotoShop native) | gdk-pixbuf-psd
+------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
+WEBP | libwebp imlib2 webp-pixbuf-loader. Build and
+ | install *in that order*.
+------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
+XCF (Gimp native) | xcf-pixbuf-loader
+------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
+RAW (camera images, | libopenraw. Note that only a few raw image
+ various extensions) | formats will actually display with qiv. These
+ | include .crw (Canon), .erf (Epson), and
+ | .nef (Nikon).
+------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
+
+These are runtime dependencies, so they can be installed at any time
+without rebuilding qiv.
+
+To easily build all the optional dependencies, use sbopkg with the
+qiv-allfmt.sqf in the SlackBuild directory.
