NAME
feh - image viewer and cataloguerSYNOPSIS
[options ] file ...DESCRIPTION
is an image viewer using the imlib2 library to open and manipulate images. It has a large number of operational modes. The default mode is an image slideshow, showing one image at a time from those specified on the command line. Keys and mouse control may be used to move through them. Other modes can be specified on the commandline, and are described below.can also recurse through a directory structure to form a filelist for processing, and will convert directory names on the commandline into a list of their contents automatically.
Filelists can be sorted in a number of ways. The default is the order in which the files were specified on the commandline, or the order in which they were read from the disk. You can specify sorting modes such as randomize or you can sort by filename, image name, width, height, pixels, etc. Filelists can also be saved to or loaded from files.
MODES
Montage mode forms a montage from the filelist. The resulting image can be viewed or saved, and its size can be limited by height, width or both.Collage mode is very similar to montage mode, except the images are distributed randomly and may overlap each other.
Index mode forms an index print from the filelist. Image thumbnails are shown along with the filename, filesize and pixel size, printed using a truetype font of your choice. The resulting image can be viewed or saved, and its size can be limited by height, width or both.
Thumbnail mode is like index mode, but the mini-images are clickable and open the selected image in a new window.
Multiwindow mode shows images in multiple windows, instead of as a slideshow in one window. Don't use with a large filelist ;)
Fullscreen mode shows images in fullscreen view. Can be combined with a slide-change delay to show an automated presentation.
List mode doesn't display images. Outputs an ls - style listing of the files in the filelist, including image info such as size, pixels, type, etc. Customlist mode will display whatever image info you want, in the format you choose.
can also list either all the loadable files in a filelist or all the unloadable files. Useful for preening a directory.
also has the ability to load files via http or ftp, simply specify the url on the commandline.
can read options from the commandline, or from a config file. The syntax is the same in each case. See Sx CONFIG FILE SYNTAX for details about using themes defined in a config file. These methods may be used in conjunction.
OPTIONS
- -A , --action action
- Specify a string as an action to perform on the image. In slideshow or multiwindow modes, the action will be run when the enter key is pressed, in list mode, the action will be run for each file listed. In loadables/unloadables mode, the action will be run for each loadable/unloadable file, respectively. The action will be executed by /bin/sh. Use format specifiers to refer to image info. See Sx FORMAT SPECIFIERS for examples. E.g. Qq feh -A mv ~/images/%n * . In slideshow mode, the next image will be shown after running the action, in multiwindow mode, the window will be closed.
- --action1 .. --action9
- Extra actions which can be set and triggered using the appropiate number key.
- -Z , --auto-zoom
- Zoom pictures to screen size in fullscreen (affected by --stretch and --ignore-aspect )
- --bg-center file
- Set file as centered desktop background
- --bg-fill file
- Like --bg-scale but preserves aspect ratio by zooming the image until it fits. Either a horizontal or a vertical part of the image will be cut off.
- --bg-scale file
- Set file as scaled desktop background. This will fill the whole background with file but its aspect ratio will not be preserved.
- --bg-seamless file
- Like --bg-tile but with blurry corners so that it is (in some cases ;-)) less obvious that the image is too small for the screen.
- --bg-tile file
- Set file as desktop background, tiled if necessary. can use enlightenment IPC if you are running it, or it will fall back to X methods. stores the commandline necessary to restore the background in ~/.fehbg So to have your background restored when you restart X, add the line Qq `cat ~/.fehbg` to your X startup script (e.g. ~/.xinitrc ) Note that you only need to do this for non E window managers.
- -x , --borderless
- Create borderless windows.
- -Q , --builtin
- Use builtin HTTP client to grab remote files instead of wget(1).
- --cache-thumbnails
- Enable (experimental) thumbnail caching in ~/.thumbnails Only works with thumbnails <= 256x256 pixels.
- --caption-path path
- Path to directory containing image captions. This turns on caption viewing, and if captions are found in path which is relative to the directory of each image, they are overlayed on the displayed image. E.g. with caption path Qq captions/ , and viewing image Qq images/foo.jpg , the caption will be looked for in Qq images/captions/foo.jpg.txt .
- -c , --collage
- Enable collage mode. Collage mode is very similar to montage mode, except the images are distributed randomly. When using collage mode, you should also specify --limit-width and --limit-height
- -L , --customlist format
- Use format (printf-like string containing image info specifiers) for list output. See Sx FORMAT SPECIFIERS .
- --cycle-once
- Exit feh after one loop through the slideshow.
- --draw-actions
- Draw the defined actions and what they do at the top-left of the image.
- -d , --draw-filename
- Draw the filename at the top-left of the image.
- -f , --filelist file
- This option is similar to the playlists used by music software. If file exists, it will be read for a list of files to load, in the order they appear. The format is a list of image filenames, absolute or relative to the current directory, one filename per line. If file doesn't exist, it will be created from the internal filelist at the end of a viewing session. This is best used to store the results of complex sorts (-Spixels for example ) for later viewing. Any changes to the internal filelist (such as deleting a file or it being pruned for being unloadable) will be saved to file when exits. You can add files to filelists by specifying them on the commandline when also specifying the list.
- -C , --fontpath path
- Specify path as extra directory in which to search for fonts; can be used multiple times to add multiple paths.
- -I , --fullindex
- Same as Index mode, but you also get image size and dimensions printed below each thumbnail.
- -F , --full-screen
- Make the window fullscreen.
- -g , --geometry width x height
- Limit (and don't change) the window size. Takes an X-style geometry string like 640x480. Note that larger images will be zoomed out to fit but you can see them at 1:1 by clicking the zoom button.
- -h , --help
- display help output and exit.
- --hide-pointer
- Hide the pointer (useful for slideshows etc)
- -B , --image-bg style
- Use style as background for transparent image parts and the like. Accepted values: white, black, default.
- -i , --index
- Enable Index mode. Index mode is similar to montage mode, and accepts the same options. It creates an index print of thumbails, printing the image name beneath each thumbnail. Index mode enables certain other options, see Sx INDEX MODE OPTIONS .
- --index-dim bool
- Toggle showing image dimensions in thumbnail/index mode.
- --index-name bool
- Toggle showing the filename in thumbnail/index mode.
- --index-size bool
- Toggle showing the filesize in thumbnail/index mode.
- -k , --keep-http
- When viewing files using HTTP, normally deletes the local copies after viewing, or, if caching, on exit. This option prevents this so that you get to keep the local copies. They will be in /tmp with Qq Nm in the name.
- -l , --list
- Don't display images. Analyse them and display an ls(1)-Nostyle listing. Useful in scripts to hunt out images of a certain size/resolution/type etc.
- -U , --loadable
- Don't display images. Just print out their names if imlib2 can successfully load them.
- -) , --menu-bg file
- Use file as background image in menus.
- --menu-border int
- Specify number of pixels that define the menu background's border. Borders are not stretched when images are scaled.
- -M , --menu-font font
- Use font (truetype, with size, like Qq yudit/12 ) as menu font.
- --menu-style file
- Read file to determine menu style.
- -m , --montage
- Enable montage mode. Montage mode creates a new image consisting of a grid of thumbnails of the images in the filelist. When montage mode is selected, certain other options become available. See Sx MONTAGE MODE OPTIONS .
- -w , --multiwindow
- Disable slideshow mode. With this setting, instead of opening multiple files in slideshow mode, multiple windows will be opened; one per file.
- --no-jump-on-resort
- Don't jump to the first image after resorting the filelist.
- -N , --no-menus
- Don't load or show any menus.
- --no-xinerama
- Disable Xinerama support. Only makes sense when you have Xinerama support compiled in.
- -j , --output-dir directory
- Save files to directory (only useful with -k)
- -p , --preload
- Preload images. This doesn't mean hold them in RAM, it means run through them and eliminate unloadable images first. Otherwise they will be removed as you flick through. This also analyses the images to get data for use in sorting, such as pixel size, type etc. A preload run will be automatically performed if you specify one of these sort modes.
- -q , --quiet
- Don't report non-fatal errors for failed loads. Verbose and quiet modes are not mutually exclusive, the first controls informational messages, the second only errors.
- -z , --randomize
- When viewing multiple files in a slideshow, randomize the file list before displaying.
- -_ , --rcfile file
- Use file to parse themes and options from, instead of the default ~/.fehrc , /etc/fehrc files.
- -r , --recursive
- Recursively expand any directories in the commandline arguments to the content of those directories, all the way down to the bottom level.
- -R , --reload int
- Reload images after int seconds. Mainly useful when viewing webcams via http.
- -n , --reverse
- Reverse the sort order. Use this to invert the order of the filelist. E.g. to sort in reverse width order, use -nSwidth
- -. , --scale-down
- When not in fullscreen: Scale images to screen size if they are too big.
- --screen-clip bool
- Disable/Enable screen clipping based on window size. With this disabled, windows may become very large, making them unmanageable in certain window managers.
- -D , --slideshow-delay float
- For slideshow mode, wait float seconds between automatically changing slides. Useful for presentations. Specify a negative number to set the delay (which will then be float * (-1) ) but start feh in paused mode.
- -S , --sort sort_type
- The file list may be sorted according to image parameters. Allowed sort types are: name, filename, width, height, pixels, size, format. For sort modes other than name or filename, a preload run will be necessary, causing a delay proportional to the number of images in the list.
- -| , --start-at filename
- Start the filelist at filename See Sx USAGE EXAMPLES .
- -T , --theme theme
- Load options from config file with name theme - see Sx CONFIG FILE SYNTAX for more info. Note that options from the theme file always override commandline options.
- -t , --thumbnails
- Same as Index mode, but the thumbnails are clickable image launchers.

- -G , --wget-timestamp
- Don't add a timestamp (Qq ?1234 ) to URLs when (re)loading them.
- --zoom percent
- Zoom images by percent when in full screen mode or when window geometry is fixed. When combined with --auto-zoom zooming will be limited to the specified percent
BUTTON OPTIONS
- -0 , --reload-button int
- Set button to reload the image (default: 0)
- -1 , --pan-button int
- Set button to pan the image (hold button down and move mouse to move the image) When the mouse is not moved, advances to the next image in slideshow mode. (default: 1 , usually the left button)
- -2 , --zoom-button int
- Set button to enable zoom mode (default: 2 , usually the middle button)
- -3 , --menu-button int
- Set button to activate the menu. (default: 3 , usually the right button)
- --menu-ctrl-mask
- Require CTRL+Button for menu activation.
- -4 , --prev-button int
- Set button to switch to the previous image in slideshow mode (default: 4 , usually Aq mousewheel up )
- -5 , --next-button int
- Set button to switch to the next image in slideshow mode (default: 5 , usually Aq mousewheel down )
- -8 , --rotate-button int
- Use CTRL+Button to rotate the current image (default : 2)
- --no-rotate-ctrl-mask

MONTAGE MODE OPTIONS
- -a , --alpha int
- When drawing thumbnails onto the background, set their transparency level to int (0 - 255)
- -b , --bg file | trans
- Use file as background for your montage. With this option specified, the montage size will default to the size of file if no size restrictions were specified. Alternatively, if file is Qq trans , the background will be made transparent.
- -X , --ignore-aspect
- By default, the montage thumbnails will retain their aspect ratios, while fitting into thumb-width/-height. This options forces them to be the size set by --thumb-width and --thumb-height This will prevent any empty space in the final montage.
- -H , --limit-height pixels
- Limit the height of the montage. These options can be used together to define the image size exactly, or separately. If only one is specified, the other is calculated from the number of files specified and the size of the thumbnails. The default is to limit width to 800 pixels and calculate the height as necessary.
- -W , --limit-width pixels
- Limit the width of the montage.
- -o , --output file
- Save the created montage to file
- -O , --output-only file
- Just save the created montage to file without displaying it.
- -s , --stretch
- Normally, if an image is smaller than the specified thumbnail size, it will not be enlarged. If this option is set, the image will be scaled up to fit the thumnail size. Aspect ratio will be maintained unles --ignore-aspect is specified.
- -E , --thumb-height pixels
- Set thumbnail height.
- -y , --thumb-width pixels
- Set thumbnail width.
- --thumb-redraw n
- Only relevant for --thumbnails Redraw thumbnail window every n images. In <= 1.5, the thumbnail image used to be redrawn after every computed thumbnail (so, it updated immediately) However, since the redrawing takes quite long (especially for thumbnail mode on a large filelist) this turned out to be a major performance penalty. As a workaround, the thumbnail image is redrawn every 10th image now by default. Set n = 1 to get the old behaviour, n = 0 will only redraw once all thumbnails are loaded.
INDEX MODE OPTIONS
- -e , --font font
- Set font for printing the information under each thumbnail. Should be a truetype font, resident in the current directory or the font directory, and should be defined in the form fontname/points, like Qq myfont/12 .
- -@ , --title-font font
- Set font to print a title on the index, if no font is specified, no title will be printed.

CONFIG FILE SYNTAX
The config file allows the naming of option groups, called themes. If ~/.fehrc or /etc/fehrc exist, will look in them for name/options pairs. If neither of them exist, will create a default one in ~/.fehrcIt takes entries of the form Qq Ar theme options ... , where theme is the name of the entry and options are the options which will be applied when the theme is used.
An example entry would be Qq imagemap -rVq --thumb-width 40 --thumb-height 30 .
You cane use this theme in two ways. Either call Qo -Timagemap *.jpg Qc or create a symbolic link to with the name of the theme you want it to use. So from the example above: Qo ln -s `which ` ~/bin/imagemap Qc . Now just run Qq imagemap *.jpg to use these options.
You can combine these themes with commandline options. An example .fehrc is provided with a couple of cool example themes.
KEYS
In an image window, the following keys may be used:- a
- Toggle actions display (see --draw-actions )
- c
- Caption entry mode. If --caption-path has been specified, then this enables caption editing. The caption at the bottom of the screen will turn yellow and can be edited. Hit return to confirm and save the caption, or escape to cancel editing. Note that you can insert an actual newline into the caption using Aq CTRL+return .
- d
- Toggle filename display (see --draw-filename )
- f
- Save the current filelist to a unique filename
- h
- Pause/Continue the slideshow. When it is paused, it will not automatically change slides based on --slideshow-delay
- m
- Show menu. Use the arrow keys and return to select items, Aq escape to close the menu.

MOUSE ACTIONS
When viewing an image, by default mouse button 1 pans (moves the image around) or, when only clicked, moves to the next image (slideshow mode only) button 2 zooms Po click and drag left->right to zoom in, right->left to zoom out, click once to restore zoom to 100% Pc ; and mouse button 3 opens the menu.CTRL+Button 1 blurs or sharpens the image (drag left to blur, right to sharpen) CTRL+Button 2 rotates the image around the center point.
A note about pan and zoom modes: In pan mode, if you reach a window border but haven't yet panned to the end of the image, will warp your cursor to the opposite border so you can continue panning.
When clicking the zoom button and immediately releasing it, the image will be back at 100% zoom. When clicking it and moving the mouse while holding the button down, the zoom will be continued at the previous zoom level. Do not let the short snapback to 100% confuse you, it'll be removed as soon as you move the mouse. The zoom will always happen so that the pixel on which you entered the zoom mode remains stationary. So, to enlarge a specific part of an image, click the zoom button on that part.
SIGNALS
In slideshow mode, handles the following signals:- SIGUSR1
- Switch to next image
- SIGUSR2
- Switch to previous image
USAGE EXAMPLES
Here are some examples of useful option combinations- feh -r /opt/images
- Recursively scan /opt/images and show all the images in a slideshow
- feh -rSname /opt/images
- Same, but sort by filename
- feh -m /opt/images/landscapes
- Create a montage from the images in /opt/images/landscapes
- feh -Xrm -W 400 --thumb-width 30 --thumb-height 20 landscapes
- Create a montage from the images in ./landscapes and all directories below it. Limit the width of the image to 400 and make the thumbnails 30x20, ignoring aspect ratio
- feh -irFarial/14 -O index.jpg /opt/images
- Make an index print of /opt/images and all directories below it, using 14 point Arial to write the image info under each thumbnail. Save the image as index.jpg and don't display it, just exit. Note that this even works without a running X server
- feh -LrSpixels /opt/images
- List the images in /opt/images and all directories below, sorted by pixel size, giving as much info as possible
- feh -kR30 http://example.org/webcam.jpg
- View a webcam, reloading every 30 seconds, saving the images in /tmp
- feh --unloadable -r /opt/images

- feh -rSwidth -A Qo mv '%f' ~/images/'%n' Qc /opt/images
- View all images in /opt/images and below, sorted by width, move an image to ~/image/image_name when enter is pressed
- feh --start-at ./foo.jpg .
- View all images in the current directory, starting with foo.jpg. All other images are still in the slideshow and can be viewed normally
- feh --start-at foo.jpg
- Same as above
DEPENDENCIES
requires the jpegtran binary (usually distributed in Qo libjpeg-progs Qc or similar ) for lossless rotation.To view images from URLs such as http://, you need to have wget available or use the builtin HTTP client (see --builtin )
BUGS
Xenarama support has a few problems, especially when not on Xinerama screen 0.There are probably other bugs, too. If you find one, let me know :)
