# tkjpeg(1p)

simple JPEG viewer using perl/Tk

## NAME

tkjpeg - simple JPEG viewer using perl/Tk

## SYNOPSIS

```
  tkjpeg imagefile.jpg
```

## DESCRIPTION

Very simplistic image viewer that loads JPEG image, (well actually anything for which Photo has a handler) and puts it into a Label for display.

It tries to find a fullcolour visual to use if display is deeper than 8-bit. (On 8-bit it uses a 4/4/4 palette.)
