J> if I understand you correctly, try urpmi gqview ;) A good suggestion, especially given the name. :-) It does view graphic images quite nicely, but it doesn't seem to do other kinds - text, data bases, word docs, spreadsheets, etc, as QuickView does. Nice tool for what it does though. -- Thank you, rikonamailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

In Mandrake 9.1 Konqueror will display previews of many file types as icons including text, audio and image files. You can choose the icon size . If Settings>LoadViewProfile>FilePreview is selected another pane appears on the right showing a large preview of any icon you select in the left pane. Not sure how much of that is in konq in 9.0 -- -- www.jennings.homelinux.net Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Not sure exactly what you want to see, but have you tried Konqueror > Settings > Configure Konqueror > Previews ? You can get a thumbnail of images, for instance, and text documents hint at opening words. HTH Anne Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Nautalus for Gnome allows the icons for text files to show the top of the file as part of the icon. If that's not what you are looking for, both KDE's Konqueror and Gnome's Nautulas allow you to set up file type associations to any file type you want and open them in a text editor. There are MANY small text editors to choose from. Michael Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
