======== Documentation (brief) [section:documentation]
+FIXME: do we need this section? The keyboard configuration dialog should provide
+correct up-to-date list.

[PageUp], [Keypad PageUp] previous image
======== Editor command macros [section:editors]
- Any one of the following filename markers may be used:
+Editors are configured via standard desktop files, see
+http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/
- %f Replaced with list of selected files, may occur once.
- %p Command is run once for each selected file, may occur multiple times.
-
- Use of the following to display output window for the command:
+FIXME: Geeqie extensions
- %v Display result of command in output window, must occur as first two
- characters in the command, or immediately after the "%w" macro.
- %V Like v above, but when used with %p, only displays output window for
- multiple files. The output of a single file is suppressed.
-
- Additional macros:
-
- %w Prevent full screen from deactivating when command is executed,
- must occur as the first two characters.
-
- %% This will be replaced by one '%'. This is the way to escape '%'.
-
- %d This only makes sense for external commands like copy or move as this
- is replaced by the destination.

formatted.Resolution Resolution
formatted.ColorProfile Color profile
