At the moment I'm working with a lot of SVG files and I don't have a good tool to inspect this files.
Normally I use feh
to take a look at an image, but feh
can't show SVG files.
Now I'm looking for a replacement. The replacement should have all the features of feh
and should be able to open SVG files.
Especially the following features are mandatory
- simple
feh
like GUI - the tool should be designed for the use in a shell
$command ~/image1.svg image2.jpg
should only open these two files not the directory~/
- support multiple image formats
- small memory footprint and not to many dependencies
I know the Eye of GNOME (eog
) does all this, but it is a GNOME tool and as such it needs to many GNOME dependencies.

With recent versions of
feh
, you should be able to dofeh --conversion-timeout 1 file.svg
.Simple way to make feh work with everything is to create an alias on that, so it either natively display the file if it's a normal image
.png
, '.jpg' etc, or converts it if it's an SVG.Note that you need to have
imagemagick
installed on your system for it to work.
