I downloaded this package several weeks ago, I learned about it from one of my
social networks, and I've been racking my brain trying to remember what it was
called. I had to print out a list of all my installed packages and do a grep
-i search using the filter "viewer" until I found it. I knew that it started
with the letter s, but for the life of me that's all I could remember.
Long story short, it's name is sxiv. Sxiv isn't a gui program it's a lightweight
image/picture view that's invoked from a Linux terminal and views pictures in
the X Window environment. I love it. Here's a YouTube video demonstrating its
merits.If you want to learn more and don't like this video just head on over
to YouTube and do a search. I'm partly making this post so as to have a place
to find it's name should I ever forget it in the future.
