Hi
I have written a lot of shell scripts but have always wanted to see an image or put in a photo in one of my scripts . Honestly I have not looked for any such utility or rpm or package that will allow me to do this , but I ma now going to search for one , If anyone knows of this kind of feature for bash shell . Kindly let me know.
Not sure about an image viewer, but perhaps something like links -g or mplayer could show you the image using DirectFB. mplayer can also use libcaca or even aalib, but I don't think that's really what you're looking for. That's of course for standalone image viewing. Haven't given a thought to the script part.

P.S. The USE flags for Gentoo suggest that there's gif, jpeg and png support in mplayer.
