It should be in flpicsee.tcz

Though I haven't tested it. My two tinycore installs are x86_64 and armhf, and flpicsee seems to be only shown for x86 and aarch64.

Unless of course you get the cpp script for it and build it yourself and put under ~/.local/bin

If I try to build flpicsee for x86_64 I get this:
Code: [Select]
flpicsee.cpp:779:25: error: 'abs' was not declared in this scope
  779 |                     if (abs(dragx - Fl::event_x()) < 3 && abs(dragy - Fl::event_y()) < 3) {

If I add "#include <cmath>" or "#include <cstdlib>" or "#include <stdlib.h>" the build suceeds, but flpicsee segfaults

Hi Juanito
I don't think flpicsee is a requirement:
... sh: fl_picsee: not found
---end of out put---
That's coming from a script, not emelfm.

You can change the default image viewer it uses. I think it's
something like  Right click file name->Properties ....

Sure, but it would be good if we could have flpicsee for x86_64  :)
