THE rc FILE

	Will be created in your home directory if you exit using the "Quit" option in the File Menu. It will return you to the current directory next time you start Photoutils.

TO SELECT AN IMAGE:

	Left click the mouse over the thumbnail.

VIEW THE SELECTED IMAGE FULL SCREEN:

	Double middle click .
	Then single click to destroy.

REQUIREMENTS:

	ActiveTcl ( I found the extensions to be better integrated than the distributed rpms)
	Convert from the Imagemagick package
	rdjpgcom & wrjpgcom
	Exifutils by Hugh Thomas
	gimp
	gphoto2
	mplayer
	qiv

ACTIONS:
Photoutils performs the following actions on jpeg photos

	Display/create thumbnails by directory
	Download photos from camera		
	Show image size
	Show whether jpg is JFIF or EXIF
	Show image full screen
	Show/Add/modify jpeg comments (1 per photo up to 64kb}
	resize to tmp.jpg
	show all exif data if present
	Open the selected image(s) in The Gimp
	Edit text files (file extension must be .txt)
	Play .wav files attached to selected jpeg image. NOTE: this is set up for photos from my Canon camera. The file name protocol used by Canon is 'img_xxxx.jpg' for the image and 'snd_xxxx.wav' for the sound. 'xxxx' represents a 4 digit number which will be identical for associated image and sound files which must be in the same directory.

It should work for other cameras using an identical protocol, otherwise, alter code at the end of proc ShowData and send me the patch. 

TO DO

show/edit selected exif fields
convert to exif format (not now important to me,
	the free version of exifwrite? is size limited)
add other image formats
heaps else
