NAME

     xv - interactive image display for the X Window System

SYNTAX

     xv [options] [filename[filename...]]

DESCRIPTION

     The xv program displays images in the GIF,	JPEG, TIFF, PBM, PGM, PPM, X11
     bitmap,  Utah  Raster  Toolkit  RLE, PDS/VICAR, Sun Rasterfile, BMP, PCX,
     IRIS RGB, XPM,  Targa,  XWD,  possibly  PostScript,  and  PM  formats  on
     workstations and terminals	running	the X Window System, Version 11.

     The documentation for XV is now distributed only as a PostScript file, as
     it	 has  gotten  enormous,	and is no longer very well suited to the 'man'
     page format.  Print  a  copy  of  the  (100-ish  page)  manual  found  in
     docs/xvdocs.ps.   If  you	are  unable to get the manual to print on your
     printer, you may purchase a printed copy of  the  XV  manual.   Click  on
     'About XV'	in the program to get further information.

     If	you don't have the PostScript file, it is  part	 of  the  standard  XV
     distribution,  the	 latest	version	of which can be	obtained via anonymous
     ftp from ftp.cis.upenn.edu	in the directory pub/xv
