  Description     : Fbi IMproved - a scriptable image viewer for the Linux framebuffer, ascii art library, and X

 FIM is a highly customizable and scriptable image viewer targeted at the
 users who are confortable with software like the Vim text editor or the Mutt
 mail user agent (it aims to be a swiss army knife for viewing images).
 It is based on the Fbi image viewer (by Gerd Hoffmann), and works primarily in
 the Linux framebuffer console.
 It is multidevice : it has X support, too (via the SDL library) and it supports
 ascii art output (via the aalib library).
 It is capable of regular expressions based (on filename) image viewing,vim-like
 autocommands, it offers GNU readline command line autocompletion and history,
 completely customizable key bindings, external/internal (if-while based)
 scriptability (through return codes, standard input/output, and commands given
 at invocation time, initialization file), internal filename-based image search,
 and much more features.
