makexvpics − create xv-compatible thumbnails
makexvpics [ -fhRv ] picture_file_or_dir [ ... ]
Makexvpics creates/updates xv/zgv/Gimp-compatible thumbnails for picture files such as GIFs, JPEGs, etc. It may be useful if you want a non-interactive way of keeping such files up to date.
The formats currently supported are GIF, JPEG, PNG, PBM/PGM/PPM, mrf, BMP, TGA, and PCX.
-f |
force thumbnails to be updated. Ordinarily they’re only updated if no thumbnail exists or if the picture file is newer. |
||
-h |
give usage help. |
||
-R |
recurse into subdirectories. |
||
-v |
be verbose - echo names (or rather, ‘basename’s) of files which are being updated. |
It’s pretty slow.
