+    <para>
+      Use the “-r” command line option to send commands to an existing Geeqie, for a list of commands supported by the remote switch run:
+    </para>
+    <programlisting>
+`geeqie --remote-help`
+</programlisting>
+    <para/></section><section id="HowdoIsettheslideshowdelaywhenstartingGeeqieinslideshowfromthecommandline"><title>
+      How do I set the slide show delay when starting Geeqie in slide show from the command line ?
+    </title>
+    <para>
+      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:
+    </para>
+    <programlisting>
+`geeqie -r -d12 -ss`
+</programlisting>
+    <para>
+      Note that if geeqie is running prior to this command, the slide show should also be stopped prior to changing the delay:
+    </para>
+    <programlisting>
+`geeqie -r -sS -d12 -ss`
+</programlisting>
+    <para/></section></section><section id="Miscellaneous"><title>

+      I want to be able to edit images with Geeqie
+    </title>
+    <para>
+      Geeqie is an image <emphasis role="i">viewer</emphasis>. There is, and never will be, a plan to add editing features. I recommend gimp for image editing.
