remage v0.1.1
Faster
- Start-up initialises only the GPU backend that worked last time (remembered in
$XDG_CACHE_HOME/remage/backend): the first frame takes about 40 ms instead of 90. - JPEGs decode straight to RGBA, EXIF rotation happens on the GPU, and sRGB profiles are no longer
"converted" to sRGB: a rotated, tagged 24 MP photo decodes in about 80 ms instead of 180. - Other ICC profiles convert on several threads.
- The grid requests thumbnails while the GPU starts up: a cached grid opens in about 55 ms.
- Quitting no longer waits for decodes in flight.
remage v0.1.0
The first release: a keyboard-centric image viewer for Linux, at nsxiv parity with vim keys,
GPU rendering and wallpaper theming.
Viewing
- Opens files, directories (
-rfor trees) or a list on stdin (-i,-0); a single file opens
its whole directory. Natural, name, mtime, size and random sort, and the queue follows files
appearing and vanishing on disk. - GPU-rendered with wgpu: the first image in about 90 ms, neighbours preloaded so
n/ptake one
frame, and no CPU use while the view is still. - Fit modes, zoom at the cursor, smooth panning, rotation and flips, automatic nearest filtering for
pixel art, gamma/brightness/contrast, and a dot-matrix transparency background. - Thumbnail grid on the shared freedesktop cache, with marks, visual-mode ranges and smooth
scrolling. - Slideshow, and animation playback with frame stepping.
Formats
- JPEG, PNG/APNG, GIF, WebP, BMP, ICO, TIFF (multi-page), TGA, PNM, QOI, DDS, HDR and OpenEXR,
plus JPEG XL, AVIF, HEIC/HEIF, SVG/SVGZ (re-rendered sharp at any zoom) and camera RAW. - ICC and CICP colour management, EXIF orientation, HDR tone-mapping, and tiling for images larger
than the GPU's texture limit. - External decoders through
[[decoders]], such as ImageMagick for PSD and XCF.
Control
- Vim key notation with sequences and counts. Every feature is an action you can bind, run from the
:palette or send over IPC. /fuzzy filename search, which-key hints,?help built from the live keymap, and an info panel
with EXIF data.- User commands that replace nsxiv's key-handler: placeholders, marks as targets, inline confirm,
output fed back as actions, and an automatic refresh afterwards. - An IPC socket and the
remage msgclient, with queries and event subscriptions.
Configuration
- One TOML file with live reload, includes,
file:line:colerrors and "did you mean" hints. nothing-darkandnothing-lightthemes; matugen and pywal recolour open windows live.- A man page (
remage man) and shell completions (remage completions <shell>).
Known gaps
- RAW support is built but hasn't been tested on real camera files yet.
- The prebuilt binary is built on Arch Linux and needs
dav1dandlibheifinstalled. On other
distributions, build from source.
