QtVu

QtVu, pronounced CuteView, is an image viewer for The X Window System. It was developed using Linux, but I hope it'll run on other UNIX variants aswell. QtVu is heavily inspired by ACD Systems' excellent ACDSee.

QtVu requires Troll Tech's Qt library (2.00 or later) and the Qt Image IO extension library.

QtVu's project page at Sourceforge can be found here, be sure to vote :)

Status
The current version of QtVu is 0.3.21 beta2

As the version number indicates, QtVu is far from finished. It's buggy, but I do think it's usable.

The current source code will be discontinued, a new and better designed version of QtVu will be available at a later time. If you have any cool ideas for this program, want to rate it or just want to help you can check the developer homepage. A discussion forum and a mailing list should be available there any time soon.

7. Dec. 1999 QtVu 0.3.21 beta2 is released, features are:

  • Graphical installer included.
3. Dec. 1999 QtVu 0.3.21 beta is released, features and bugfixes are:

  • New configuration directory called ~/.QtVu/

Compilation
If you have the Qt Image IO extension already compiled on your system, compiling QtVu is simply a matter of typing:
	make
If you don't have the Qt Image IO extension library, you must compile it yourself.

On my machine using Qt 2.00, QtVu will then support BMP, GIF, JPEG, PBM, PBMRAW, PGM, PGMRAW, PNG, PPM, PPMRAW, XBM and XPM.

HTML documentation of the source code can be generated with Doxygen.
