.SH THUMBNAIL CACHING
|
||||
To enable thumbnail caching, please make sure to create the directory
|
||||
.I ~/.sxiv/
|
||||
with write permissions. sxiv will then store all thumbnails inside this
|
||||
directory, but it will not create this directory by itself. It rather uses the
|
||||
existance of this directory as an affirmation, that the user wants thumbnails
|
||||
to be cached.
|
||||
.P
|
||||
Use the command line option
|
||||
.I \-C
|
||||
to keep the cache directory clean by removing all orphaned cache files.
|
||||
Additionally, run the following command afterwards inside the cache directory
|
||||
to remove empty subdirectories:

||||

|

find -type d -empty -delete
