I don't see how gpicview is a keyboard-friendly program. For example, I can't even see a way of navigating round a large image with the cursor keys. The only way I found of stepping through a number of files is to use the OpenFile dialog box as a thumbnail viewer. What have I missed? (There seems to be almost no documentation.) Despite its limitations (eg no movies, and zooming is crude), I find xzgv a most satisfactory keyboard-friendly viewer. Cheers, David.
