I have been using gqview in a semi-automatic launch from another program
(a script I use to locate particular icons).

I only just recently noticed that GQview you can open new windows
each listing a different directory.  Though it also adds another
image viewing window, even when the directories are 'detached'.

Some problems however should be very easilly solvable....

First you can not open up the two directoryies from the command line

Second you can not open extra directories (or do anything else)
by remote control.  That is by control from some other program that
is locating and finding particular images.

And Third...  It would be nice if you can open a new direction
listing window WITHOUT haveing to have another standard image viewing
window,  just for that directory.  One window is plenty and if I want
to see two images side by side I can always open a separate 'view
this image' window.


As a side issue, it would be nice if when looking at a directory in
'icon' mode. The directory view, used multiple columns.  So much wasted
space, when only one column is used on a wide window.

  At 300 dpi you can tell she's wearing a swimsuit.
  At 600 dpi you can tell it's wet.
  At 1200 dpi you can tell it's painted on.
  I suppose at 2400 dpi you can tell if the paint is giving her a rash.
