showpicture(1) UNIX System V (Release 1) showpicture(1)
NAME
showpicture - View an image received in the mail
SYNOPSIS
showpicture [-viewer program-name] file-name(s)
DESCRIPTION
The showpicture program will allow a user on a properly-
equipped workstation to view a picture using the
xloadimage(1) program. It is intended to be called from
mailcap files, typically by the metamail(1) program.
By default, the program used to display pictures under X11
is "xloadimage -view -quiet -geometry +1+1". This can be
overridden either by the environment variable X_VIEWER or by
the -viewer command line option.
SEE ALSO
metamail(1)
BUGS
Doesn't do much if you're not running X11.
