Use cases

go through endless created AI images, with the most recent rendered one shown first.
identify the good images, and sort them out immediately to a separate folder, by a key press.
read the prompt text of an image by F3.
go through huge image collections, like a 20,000 picture archive of holiday snapshots. jump to a random epoch by key Space or '1'. continue in that time area (e.g. a holiday 20 years ago) sequentially by cursor left/right.

Why another image viewer?

I wrote iView for myself, as I was fed up with the (meanwhile) totally hypercomplex and unusable JpegView, which I used many years ago. I found it can no longer do what I need, at least not without hour-long studies of documentation and config files.

Most image viewers come with a cumbersome installation, requiring dot-net runtimes and other stuff, for their thousand features which I don't need.
