That's very similar to the script I shared.
I preview the file in gthumb, but mostly because it will allow some
minor editing (cropping, resizing), if needed/desired, before I scp up
to my server or something.
(for those who like, ristretto is another decent viewer, but like
gpicview, also offers only a preview, and no editing).

That's fun.
My script doesn't beep or anything.
I should implement that, just for kicks.
