Hi,

thanks for the bug report.

I'll lower the severity to normal as it is not not working at all. It is
only a inconsistency between documentation and the error messages.

There is one real error in your remote call. There is no »file« option
to use. The help screen point says »file:« which means that »file:«
should be in front of every file.

However, you are true that this is a small bug and inconsistency between
documentation and appearance. This bug should be fixed in the next
version.

I'm not sure if that should be called bug. Maybe future geeqie will have
a option to specify the handling of single files. But at the moment it
don't.

I hope this is ok for you to leave it to future versions.

I will look for this task too. Stay patient.

Due the version you used (and was packed to debian) was not a finished
version. In the current version this is not the case anymore.
