Implement secure rc file saving. First data is written to a temporary file, then if nothing was wrong, this file is renamed to the final name. This way the risk of corrupted rc file is greatly reduced. The code is borrowed from ELinks (http://elinks.cz).

<P><B>9.1 How do I open an image in an existing GQview application ?</B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">Use the &ldquo;-r&rdquo; command line
option to send commands to an existing GQview, for a list of commands
supported by the remote switch run:</P>
<PRE STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in">gqview --remote-help</PRE><P>

<P><B>9.2 How do I set the slide show delay when starting GQview in
slide show from the command line ?</B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">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 STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in">gqview -r -d12 -ss</PRE><P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">
<BR><BR>
</P>
<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">Note that if gqview is running prior
to this command, the slide show should also be stopped prior to
changing the delay:</P>
<PRE STYLE="margin-left: 1.58in">gqview -r -sS -d12 -ss</PRE><P>

<P><B>10.1 I want to be able to edit images with GQview</B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-left: 0.79in">GQview 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>
