thanks for the bug report.
You're welcome. Thanks for the help!
Commands that worked in gqview no longer work, and my attempts to
control a running geeqie process via the commandline often report
errors and don't always do what I expect from the documentation.
Some examples perhaps illustrate best. I have a running geeqie process.
jeff@aragorn:California $ geeqie --remote file 20091023-093855-6366.jpg

Geeqie 1.0beta2, This is an alpha release.
Invalid or ignored remote options: file, 20091023-093855-6366.jpg,

Use --remote-help for valid remote options.

But, in fact, the remote session did the right thing (displayed those
two images as a selection of two things). The error message appears
incorrect (and quite distracting!). By selection, I mean "what does
repeated application of page-up and page-down indicate is the set of
images I am viewing?"
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.
Makes sense. Perhaps merely as a feature request, It is very nice to be
able to say something like
$ geeqie --remote file $(cat my-files.txt)
or something similar not needing perl or sed to insert "file:" before
each name.
Anyway, many thanks!
