in reply to Tk-thumbnail-viewer

Very neat. Works for me on WinXP (after I installed ImageMagick and PerlMagick).

The directory browser seems to ignore (fails to open any images in) subdirectories whose names contain spaces or dashes (legal characters in Win32 filenames).

    I tried the - and space on linux, and the - works, but not the name with spaces. You can easily adjust it to suit your system, just change the line my @files = glob "$path/*"; to whatever command works well on win32.

    Yeah I just looked at it, and File::Glob will do the trick on linux. Change 

    #    my @files = glob "$path/*"; 
    use File::Glob ':glob';
    my @files = bsd_glob( "$path/*");  #includes spaces

    Hi again. FYI, I don't know if you have encoding problems on WinXP, but I had a problem with extended ascii characters in art/Paintings/Gellee, where the filename had European chars in them. This would cause errors in opening the file, if I retreived the filename from a stored string. See Re: problems with extended ascii characters in filenames

    I changed the glob to a readdir and used Encode::decode.
