Try to write in a less flowery style. What does "tap onto an image" mean ?
I seems that you want to use mc to select & view <graphicFiles> ? And that you hope to use a utility called zgv ? So to confirm that zgv is available/usable you could try: <zgv's-path/zgv> <path&nameOfSomeSuitableFileImage> Of course, using mc this needs only a few key strokes. Try to 'move forward' from a known good state towards your destination. Eg. can you view 'any' of the special file formats: *.doc, *.pdf, *gif ..etc, by using mc's <F3> or <enter> ? == Chris Glur.
