xviewraw is an Xlib-powered software that enables users to view and convert RAW photos. It uses David Coffin's dcraw code for an efficient and streamlined experience.
To use xviewraw, simply run the command "./xviewraw [options] file1 file2 ..." and specify the options you want to use. Some of the most useful options include "-c" (which writes the output to standard output), "-v" (which prints verbose messages during decoding), and "-d" (which activates document mode and disables color and interpolation).
Other options allow you to set the gamma, brightness, and white balance of your images, as well as choose from various output formats. For example, you can write 24-bpp PPM files (the default), 48-bpp PSD files (for use with Adobe Photoshop), or 48-bpp PPM files.
Overall, xviewraw is a great choice for anyone who needs to view or convert RAW photographs on a regular basis. The program is fast, reliable, and easy to use, with a wide range of options to help you get the exact output you need.
