# This is a Free & Fast Image Viewer and Editor for Windows. It can as well play avi video files,
# ordinary audio files and audio CDs. There are many tools around doing that, but the aim of this
# Freeware is to be a small and handy tool doing what it says and running also as a standalone
# exe file (installer not necessary).
