uoeia -- Universally Open Every Image Available

A small utility script which displays the specified image(s), image url(s) or image gallery url(s) using your preferred image viewer.

Basically, point it to something containing images and it should open it in your image viewer.

Usage

uoeia [OPTION]... [FILE|URL]

Displays the specified image using your preferred image viewer.

Can open remote urls of individual images, galleries, as well as local files at the same time. Uses gallery-dl for remote gallery opening - so if gallery-dl can open it, so can your image viewer.

Options:

-v, --viewer Specify the image viewer to use.

-q, --quiet Don't display any output during normal operation.

-g, --gdlopts Pass through options to gallery-dl. Take care to fully quote each passed option.

-r, --replace Url patterns to replace in the format 'mypattern:::myreplacement'

-h, --help Show this help message and exit.
