X display to use

All other command line parameters are used as plain files if they exist, or a URL or a folder. The name of a collection, with or without either path or extension (.gqv) may be used.

If more than one folder is on the command line, only the last will be used.

If more than one file is on the command line:

If they are in the same folder, that folder will be opened and those files will be selected. If they are not in the same folder, a new Collection containing those files will be opened.

To run Geeqie as a new instance, use: GQ_NEW_INSTANCE=y[es] geeqie Normally a single set of configuration files is used for all instances. However, the environment variables XDG_CONFIG_HOME, XDG_CACHE_HOME, XDG_DATA_HOME can be used to modify this behavior on an individual basis e.g. XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/tmp/a XDG_CACHE_HOME=/tmp/b GQ_NEW_INSTANCE=y geeqie

To disable Clutter use: GQ_DISABLE_CLUTTER=y[es] geeqie

To run or stop Geeqie in cache maintenance (non-GUI) mode use: GQ_CACHE_MAINTENANCE=y[es] geeqie --help
