fbgs − Poor man’s PostScript/pdf viewer for the linux framebuffer console.
fbgs [−l|−xl|−xxl|−r n] [−c] [−b] [−p password] [−-fp number] [−-lp number] [fbi options] file
Fbgs is a simple wrapper script which takes a PostScript (PS) or Portable Document Format (PDF) file as input, renders the pages using gs(1) − GhostScript − into a temporary directory and finally calls fbi(1) to display them.
Fbgs understands all fbi(1) options (they are passed through), except: store, list, text, (no)comments, e, (no)edit, (no)backup, (no)preserve, (no)readahead, cachemem, blend.
Additionally you
can specify:
-h, --help
Print usage info (overwrites fbi option).
-b, --bell
Emit a beep when the document is ready.
-c, --color
To render the pages in color (default is N&B).
-l |
To get the pages rendered with 100 dpi (default is 75). |
|||
-xl |
To get the pages rendered with 120 dpi. |
|||
-xxl |
To get the pages rendered with 150 dpi. |
-r n, --resolution n
To get the pages rendered with n dpi (overwrites fbi option).
-fp number, --firstpage number
Begins interpreting on the designated page of the document.
-lp number, --lastpage number
Stops interpreting after the designated page of the document.
-p password, --password password
You can use this option if your PDF file requires a password.
