| 12 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 13 | sxiv is a simple image viewer for X. It only has the most basic features |
| 14 | required for fast image viewing. |
| 15 | .P |
| 16 | sxiv opens all named |
| 17 | .IR FILE s, |
| 18 | or reads the names of the files to open from standard input, if only a single |
| 19 | hyphen\-minus |
| 20 | .RB ( \- ) |
| 21 | is given. |
| 22 | .P |
| 23 | sxiv has two modes of operation: image and thumbnail mode. The default is image |
| 24 | mode, in which only the current image is shown. In thumbnail mode a grid of |
| 25 | small previews is displayed, making it easy to choose an image to open. |
| 26 | .P |
| 27 | Please note, that the fullscreen mode requires an EWMH/NetWM compliant window |
| 28 | manager. |
