Fix the broken statistic generation The output of msgfmt has different format if no fuzzy translations (or even no translated) are available. I fixed that by parsing the output of msgfmt more intelligent. Drawback of the solution is that the parsing will not work if the output of msgfmt use not the strings "translated messages", "fuzzy translations" and "untranslated messages".

  <h1>Frequently Asked Questions</h1>

  <h2 class="faq">Image viewing</h2>

  <h3 class="faq">How do I keep images smaller than the visible area from enlarging when the zoom is set to &ldquo;fit to window&rdquo; ?</h3>

  <p>In the preferences dialog, under the &ldquo;Image&rdquo; tab, disable &ldquo;Allow enlargement of image for zoom to fit&rdquo;.</p>

  <h2 class="faq">Command line</h2>
 
  <h3 class="faq">How do I open an image in an existing Geeqie application ?</h3>

  <p>Use the &ldquo;-r&rdquo; command line option to send commands to an existing Geeqie, for a list of commands supported by the remote switch run:</p>

<pre><code>geeqie --remote-help</code></pre>

  <h3 class="faq">How do I set the slide show delay when starting Geeqie in slide show from the command line ?</h3>

  <p>The delay can not be set when used with the standard -s command line switch, as -s uses the delay stored in the configuration file. For this use the remote command -ss to start the slide show after setting the delay with -d, the order of the command line is important, for example a 12 second slide show delay:</p>

<pre><code>geeqie -r -d12 -ss</code></pre>

  <p class="note"><span class="note_label">Note that if geeqie is running prior to this command, the slide show should also be stopped prior to changing the delay:</span></p>

<pre><code>geeqie -r -sS -d12 -ss</code></pre>

 
  <h2 class="faq">Miscellaneous</h2>
 
  <h3 class="faq">I want to be able to edit images with Geeqie</h3>

  <p>Geeqie is an image <i>viewer</i>. There is, and never will be, a plan to add editing features. I recommend gimp for image editing.</p>
