User Commands display(1)
In addition to those listed above, you can specify these
standard X resources as command line options: -background,
-bordercolor, -borderwidth, -font, -foreground, -iconGeome-
try, -iconic, -mattecolor, -name, -shared-memory,
-usePixmap, or -title.
By default, the image format of `file' is determined by its
magic number. To specify a particular image format, precede
the filename with an image format name and a colon (i.e.
ps:image) or specify the image type as the filename suffix
(i.e. image.ps). Specify 'file' as '-' for standard input
or output.
Buttons:
1 press to map or unmap the Command widget
2 press and drag to magnify a region of an image
3 press to load an image from a visual image directory
NOTE
The display program defaults to the X screen resolution. To
display vector formats at their intended size, override the
default resolution:
