Would it be possible to add the "showimage" program from SDL's test/ directory?

It's a really small image viewer, it can show nearly any type of image (all the ones supported by SDL). For example, jpg, png.. It's also really light, and works both in X and in a framebuffer console.

Mine is 5.8 kb, so it wouldn't take too much space. (By mine I mean on my Aero, compiled with glibc 2.5.1 and optimized for a P3...)

What would be the advantage over xzgv for basic image viewing without the SDL library?
I tend to keep extension files together. This means 4 files for each
extension end up in the MyDsl folder, the .app(or icon), .uci, .info
and md5.txt. That's an awful lot of boxes in the dfm folder.

Could not the .app/icon shorcuts be put in a ram directory somewhere seperate? What happens if MyDsl is on cdrom?



p.s/
another tip for getting_started.html is the 'esc' key will refresh
a dfm folder.

With v4.0 dfm is used. So it's drag and drop for icons and background can be set by right-clicking on dfm > DFM for X11 > Desktop Options.

Sounds like a good argument NOT to keep them all together.
What if you just archive  non-exec files in a separate folder somewhere?
