So, how can I do better? Does X renders jpeg itself, or qiv converts jpeg to some other format? Then preliminary converting would also save the time.
X11 doesn't speak any file-based format. There are some formats which are close to the wire protocol: xbm for fonts, cursors, and depth-1 windows, and xpm for other bit depths. But when it comes down to it, the program has to read whatever format you give it and populate a Pixmap, then blit that to the window.
Pretty close to what I expected. So, are there programs capable of converting jpegs to pixmaps and saving to file? qiv doesn't seem to have such option. -- Roman I. Cheplyaka :: http://ro-che.info/ ...being in love is totally punk rock...
