Subject: xanim: displays banner and registers as MIME viewer
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.3.96.980404221509.21357U-100000@monet>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII


Package: xanim
Version: 2.70.6.4-9
Severity: wishlist

The xanim program is registered as MIME viewer and displays a banner when
started: 

  $ xanim haystacks.jpg 
  XAnim Rev 2.70.6.4 by Mark Podlipec (c) 1991-1997
  $

This behaviour is very annoying, for example, when you click on a picture
in netscape and xanim is launched--you get an extra netscape window just
for the banner line. 

IMO, xanim should be changed to only display the banner when a "-V" or
"--version" option is specified--just like other UNIX programs.


Thanks,

Chris
