NAME

       makexvpics - create xv-compatible thumbnails

SYNOPSIS

       makexvpics [ -fhRv ] picture_file_or_dir [ ... ]

DESCRIPTION

       Makexvpics   creates/updates   xv/zgv/Gimp-compatible   thumbnails  for
       picture files such as GIFs, JPEGs, etc. It may be useful if you want  a
       non-interactive way of keeping such files up to date.

       The  formats  currently supported are GIF, JPEG, PNG, PBM/PGM/PPM, mrf,
       BMP, TGA, and PCX.

OPTIONS

       -f     force thumbnails to be updated. Ordinarily they’re only  updated
              if no thumbnail exists or if the picture file is newer.

       -h     give usage help.

       -R     recurse into subdirectories.

       -v     be  verbose - echo names (or rather, ‘basename’s) of files which
              are being updated.

BUGS

       It’s pretty slow.
