This section describes the options presented under the Editors Tab of the preferences dialog.
Geeqie includes ten entries that can be used for executing other applications or shell commands with the selected image. These commands are accessible by menu and keyboard shortcuts. The keyboard shortcuts use [Control] + [1] through [Control] + [0], which correspond to lines one through ten in the preferences dialog.
This field is used to represent the command in the menus of Geeqie, it is intended to describe the application or function that results from executing the command in the Command Line field.
External command Copy/Move/Rename/Delete/New Folder allows to specify commands to use for these operations. When set, internal operations will be disabled and these commands used instead.
This field is the command to execute. Several macros are available to position image file names within the command. If no macro is specified, the behavior will be to append the filenames onto the end of the command (the result will be the same as “command %f”).
