Inkview

Inkview is a slideshow program which uses SVG files. To run it do: inkview somewhere/*.svg and the slideshow will consist of the list of files supplied on the command line in the given order. Supplying a .jar or .sxw file on the command line should retrieve the SVGs for viewing (inkview needs to be compiled with the --with-inkjar flag in the configure script for this).

Keyboard shortcuts (as of release 0.45)

• Left, PageUp, Backspace : show previous slide
• Right, PageDown, Space: show next slide
• Up, Home: go to first slide
• Down, End: go to last slide
• Escape, Q: quit
• F11: go to fullscreen mode/revert back to window mode
• Enter: pop up window with slide buttons (first, prev, next, last)

To-do list

• Add a default SVG for when a document does not load.

What about using the inkscape logo without text, or with the words Inkview -- rejon

There is a nice crystal SVG Inkscape logo at http://www.openclipart.org/incoming//etiquette-icons-0.3.tar.gz

Roadmap

Make Inkview a full-featured SVG browser:

• Incorporate Inkscape's "open file" dialog, for browsing.
• Allow kill process, in case of hang (common with lots of previews of large files).
