391 Any one of the following filename markers may be used: 405 Editors are configured via standard desktop files, see
392 406 http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/
393 %f Replaced with list of selected files, may occur once. 407
394 %p Command is run once for each selected file, may occur multiple times. 408 FIXME: Geeqie extensions
395 409
396 Use of the following to display output window for the command:
397
398 %v Display result of command in output window, must occur as first two
399 characters in the command, or immediately after the "%w" macro.
400 %V Like v above, but when used with %p, only displays output window for
401 multiple files. The output of a single file is suppressed.
402
403 Additional macros:
404
405 %w Prevent full screen from deactivating when command is executed,
406 must occur as the first two characters.
407
408 %% This will be replaced by one '%'. This is the way to escape '%'.
409
410 %d This only makes sense for external commands like copy or move as this
411 is replaced by the destination.
