Windows 10 - Command line #6

Closed RottenRonnie closed 3 years ago

RottenRonnie commented 3 years ago

Situation - when running from the command line on Win 10, I expect the command imageviewer * would open and display all the associated image files from within the current directory, but it simply invokes the application with the "ImageViewer - Open pictures(s)" selection window.

I had assumed that I could use this similar to feh for linux - https://feh.finalrewind.org/

Also these commands bring up a GUI "about" as opposed to command line options and switches. imageviewer /? imageviewer -h imageviewer --help

Thank you! I'll fix "-h" and add "imageviewer *" in the next version.

It turns out that it is not easy for a GUI app (at least Delphi/Lazarus/Pascal) to write to the console which started. It needed to be created as a "console application" to do that. In stead, I decided to create a new console window and write a help there when encounter -h option.

As for the "imageviewer *", it is done (v1.2.13). The behavior is pretty much the same as "imageviewer ./".

I miss to command line options: 1 for background color 2 and more important Start InFrame Slideshow

otherwise nice little tool
