[Ranger-users] review of "efficient_w3mimgpreview" branch

[Roman Z.]

Hi people,

I made a change to the image previewing code which *should* make it
considerably more efficient.  However, before I merge it into master,
I'd like as many people as possible to test it because image previews
produce drastically different results on different computers.

You can get the efficient_w3mimgpreview branch by using the command:

git clone -b efficient_w3mimgpreview git://git.savannah.nongnu.org/ranger.git

Or just fetching and checking it out on an existing repo.

Thank you :3


What exactly I did was spawn one single w3mimgpreview instance (once
needed) and keep it alive instead of spawning a new one each time an
image is displayed.
