DESCRIPTION
       Vimiv is an image viewer with vim-like keybindings. It is written in
       python3 using the Gtk3 toolkit. Some of the features are:

              o Thumbnail mode

              o Simple library browser

              o Basic image editing

              o Command line with tab completion

       The complete documentation is not included in this manpage but is
       available at:

       <http://karlch.github.io/vimiv/documentation/>

       -b, --bar
              display the statusbar

       -f, --fullscreen
              start in fullscreen

       -h, --help
              display a simple help text

       -l, --library
              display the library

       -r, --recursive
              search the directory recursively for images

       -s, --shuffle
              shuffle the filelist

       -v, --version
              show version information and exit

       --start-from-desktop
              start using the desktop_start_dir as path

       --slideshow
              start in slideshow mode

       --slideshow-delay SLIDESHOW_DELAY
              set the slideshow delay

       -g, --geometry GEOMETRY
              set the starting geometry

       --temp-basedir
              use a temporary basedir

       --config FILE
              use FILE as local configuration file instead of
              $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vimiv/vimivrc and ~/.vimiv/vimivrc.

       --debug
              run in debug mode

       All capitals negate the setting, so e.g. -B means do not display the
       statusbar.  For the long version prepend no-, e.g. --no-bar.
