NAME
       showpicture - View an image received in the mail

SYNOPSIS
       showpicture  [-viewer program-name] file-name(s)

DESCRIPTION
       The showpicture program will allow a user on a properly-equipped
       workstation to view a picture using the xloadimage(1) program.  It is
       intended to be called from mailcap files, typically by the metamail(1)
       program.

       By default, the program used to display pictures under X11 is
       "xloadimage -view -quiet -geometry +1+1".  This can be overridden
       either by the environment variable X_VIEWER or by the -viewer command
       line option.

SEE ALSO
       metamail(1)

BUGS
       Doesn't do much if you're not running X11.
