<H1>1. Introduction</H1>
<P>GQview is an image viewer, that makes navigation of images easy.
Images can be viewed full screen, and a slide show function allows
automatic changing of the displayed image.</P>
<P>GQview is an image manager, with complete copy, move, rename, and
delete functions available at the press of a button. Find the right
image with the search feature. Image collectors can free up space
with a function that finds duplicate images.</P>
<P><BR><BR>
</P>
<P>The one thing GQview is not, and never be, is an image editor.
However, GQview paired with an image editor, such as the Gimp, can be
a very powerful combination.</P>

<P>&ldquo;An application that displays images.&rdquo; - This was, and
still is, the primary goal of GQview. Over time image management
features have been added, but the core purpose of GQview remains the
same.</P>
