The main method of customizing nsxiv is by setting values for the variables in *config.h*,
 | 
			
		||||
or by using Xresources as explained in the manual. If these options are not sufficient,
 | 
			
		||||
you may implement your own features by following
 | 
			
		||||
[this guide](https://github.com/nsxiv/nsxiv-extra/blob/master/CUSTOMIZATION.md).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Due to our limited [project scope](CONTRIBUTING.md#Project-Scope), certain features or
 | 
			
		||||
customization cannot be merged into nsxiv mainline. Following the spirit of
 | 
			
		||||
suckless software, we host the [nsxiv-extra](https://github.com/nsxiv/nsxiv-extra)
 | 
			
		||||
repo where users are free to submit whatever patches or scripts they wish.

our project scope, please submit it as a pull request on this repository, then we *may*
