DESCRIPTION

Vimiv is an image viewer with vim−like keybindings. It is written in python3 using the Gtk3 toolkit. Some of the features are:

	•		Thumbnail mode
	•		Simple library browser
	•		Basic image editing
	•		Command line with tab completion

The complete documentation is not included in this manpage but is available at:

⟨http://karlch.github.io/vimiv/documentation/⟩

−b, −−bar

display the statusbar

−f, −−fullscreen

start in fullscreen

−h, −−help

display a simple help text

−l, −−library

display the library

−r, −−recursive

search the directory recursively for images

−s, −−shuffle

shuffle the filelist

−v, −−version

show version information and exit

−−start−from−desktop

start using the desktop_start_dir as path

−−slideshow

start in slideshow mode

−−slideshow−delay SLIDESHOW_DELAY

set the slideshow delay

−g, −−geometry GEOMETRY

set the starting geometry

−−temp−basedir

−−config FILE

use FILE as local configuration file instead of $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vimiv/vimivrc and ˜/.vimiv/vimivrc.

−−debug

All capitals negate the setting, so e.g. −B means do not display the statusbar. For the long version prepend no−, e.g. −−no−bar.
