[OT] [fim-devel] fim new release: 0.5 (rc0) !!

Dear Vim/Mutt users,

As an enthusiastic user of Vim and Mutt, some time ago I began writing
a software with a spirit similar to both of them, but to view images.

It is named "Fim", and now there's a new release since a long time.

On its website I've put two sections why a Vim or a Mutt user
might like it:

Here forwarded follows the release email.
I hope this message can be of your interest.

Cheers,
Michele

Dear FIM/Fbi IMproved users,

I am happy to announce the release of fim-0.5-rc0.

This is a major release: it brings a lot of features and changes
with respect to the previous one (0.4).

The main user-visible changes are:

* display of per-image description text, which can be
loaded from a text file via the --load-image-descriptions-file switch
* per-image-group properties/tagging syntax for the description file
* search on file name and image descriptions text with '/' and '?'
* status line and SDL window caption customizable with expandos
* load from directories recursively with -R / --recursive
* EXIF based orientation (rotation) support
* EXIF tags loading into variables usable e.g. in the status line
* 'limit' command to filter the displayed images list
on e.g. filename, description, EXIF value or other...
* faster image scaling with mipmaps
* jump back and forth between two images remembering alignment/scaling
* resize the SDL window to image size with 'W' / --autowindow
* new formats support: JPEG-2000 (via JasPer) + PCX (native)
* open a file at an offset (experimental)
* open files in CBZ,CBR,RAR,TAR,TGZ,TBZ,7Z,ISO,... archives
(experimental, via libarchive)

Tarballs available at
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/fbi-improved/
(don't panic if it doesn't download at first -- all the mirrors
have to get the files first)

As always, feedback is very appreciated: I am very grateful to the users
that the time have provided critiques, suggestions, useful bug reports,
patches or new code!
