144cv - a fast gtk+ image viewer modeled after xv 148cv - a fast gtk+ image viewer loosely modeled after XV
145 149
146=head1 SYNOPSIS 150=head1 SYNOPSIS
147 151
148 cv [file...] 152 cv [file...]
149 153
154=head1 FEATURES
155
156CV is supposed to work similar to the venerable XV image viewer, just
157faster. Why faster?
158
159=over 4
160
161=item * optimized directory scanning algorithm
162
163The directory scanning in CV plays some tricks that - on most modern
164filesystems - makes it possible to detect filetypes faster than stat()'ing
165every file. This makes CV suitable for directories with lots of files
166(10000+).
167
168This algorithm is quite unprecise - it doesn't make a difference between
169files, device nodes, symlinks and the like, and filetype detection is done
170using the file extension only.
171
172=item * use of asynchronous I/O
173
174CV tries to use asynchronous I/O whereever it makes sense, for example
175while scanning directories, waiting for stat data or unlinking files. This
176usually decreases scanning times for large directories a bit (especially
177on RAID devices and over NFS).
178
179=item * fast image loading
180
181The time span between the user issuing a command and displaying the new
182image should be as small as possible. CV uses optimized (especially
183for JPEG) loading functions and sacrifices some quality (e.g no gamma
184correction) to achieve this speed.
185
186=item * fast thumbnail creation
187
188Thumbnail creation is crucial for me, so it's better be fast. Thumbnail
189creation for JPEGs has been specially optimized.
190
191=item * minimum optical clutter
192
193CV has no menus or other user interface elements that take up a lot of
194screen space. The schnauzer windows can also be somewhat crowded.
195
196The point of an image viewer is viewing images, not a nice GUI. This is
197similar to XV's behaviour.
198
199=item * efficient (and hard to learn) user interface
200
201CV uses key combinations. A lot. If you are an experienced XV user, you
202will find most of these keys familiar. If not, CV might be hard to use at
203first, but will be an efficient tool later.
204
205=item * i18n'ed filename handling throughout
206
207As long as glib can recognize your filename encoding (either UTF-8 or
208locale-specific, depending on your settings) and you have the relevant
209fonts, CV will display your filenames correctly.
210
211=item * extensible through plug-ins
212
213I have weird plug-ins that access remote databases to find a
214directory. This is not likely to be of any use to other people. Likewise,
215others might have weird requirements I cannot dream of.
216
217=item * filename clustering
218
219Among the standard plug-ins is a filename clustering plug-in, that (in
220case of tens of thousands images in one directory) might be able to
221cluster similar names together.

304When starting, CV runs the F<.cvrc> file in your F<$HOME> directory as if
305it were a perl script. in that, you will mostly load plug-ins.
306
307Example:
308
309 system "fping -q -t 10 ether"
310 or require "/fs/cv/cvplugin.pl";
311
312This will load a plug-in, but only if the machine I<ether> is reachable
313(supposedly the plug-in is networked in some way :).
