-  When Auto-image-file minor mode is enabled, visiting an image file

   The @kbd{M-x ffap} command generalizes @code{find-file} with more
 powerful heuristic defaults (@pxref{FFAP}), often based on the text at
 point.  Partial Completion mode offers other features extending
 @code{find-file}, which can be used with @code{ffap}.

+  Thumbs mode is a major mode for viewing directories containing many
+image files.  To use it, type @kbd{M-x thumbs} and specify the
+directory to view.  The images in that directory will be displayed in
+a @samp{Thumbs} buffer as @dfn{thumbnails}; type @kbd{RET} on a
+thumbnail to view the full-size image.  Thumbs mode requires the
+@file{convert} program, which is part of the ImageMagick software
+package.
